Growin' up Irish by Bobby O'Brien (2003)
Genre: Celtic Folk
When did we receive it? Sometime in 2003, I think

First of all, we'd like to thank Bobby O'Brien for sending us a copy of his latest CD for airplay on 'Proud to be Irish'. We have constantly played Bobby O'Brien's music throughout the years on the radio program and he has a great number of fans who love his music. Bobby is Irish singers Daniel O'Donnell's and Margo's cousin and is a very popular Irish singer in his own right. Please keep an eye on our newly reinstated playlists as we may play songs from this CD or Bobby's earlier CD, The Irish Songs I Love to Sing.
