Just seen a FB post from Irish Music Magazine.

Sadly, Mickey has passed away. I don’t know much more.

I remember him from the early Edinburgh Folk Festivals when he used to visit. His brother Cathal is still Edinburgh based, of course.

A great singer and composer of classic songs such as “Only our rivers run free”, “The red headed Anne”, and…of course… The ballad of Lidl and Aldi.

Condolences to all Mickey’s family and friends.
