Irish peace activist/folk singer/songwriter Tommy Sands befriended Vedran Smailovic the cellist -- and they teamed up on the album "Sarajevo to Belfast". It's as amazingly good as all the rest of Tommy Sands' stuff.

I'm always encouraged to see that the tradition is alive and strong, so thanks again for posting this by Jon Brooks, who I had not heard of before.

Best of luck with your concert series.
