	Amergin - The Traditional Irish Music Band
		Amergin is an Irish traditional music group based in Kenmare, a small picturesque seaside town with a mountain backdrop in the southern part of County Kerry, Ireland.
		The Group Amergin takes its name from the legendary Milesian prince, poet and hero who landed on the shores of Kenmare Bay during the early Bronze Age -circa 2000 B.C. The band plays polkas, slides, hornpipes and reels - all lively dance music, together with haunting airs and soulful songs.
		The band's latest recording is entitled "The Gypsy Princess" which is also the name of one of the tracks on the C.D. The Gypsy Princess is believed locally to have been a tall ship that sailed out of Bantry Bay in County Cork in the 19th Century.

		Amergin, the chief bard of the invading Milesians, stepped on to Irelands shores with a poetic boast that continues to haunt the Celtic imagination.
		The Song of Amergin, considered to be one of the oldest Irish literary works, reflects the victorious spirit of the Milesians, who were among the original settlers in Ireland.
		It also captures an ancient human aspiration that colours future Celtic folkfore and literature, namely, the identification of the bard or storyteller with the inner life of his subject matter or in shamanic terms, the ability to shapeshift into the spirit of other created things.
