BIDDY FROM MUCKCROSS. Irish, Reel. Ireland, County Donegal. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AB. The tune is associated with the Kilcar region of County Donegal, explains piper Brian McNamara, who says 'Biddy' was a lilter from the headland of Muckross, near Kilcar. She lilted at dances when there were no fiddles available [see also Caoimhin Mac Aoidh, Between the Jigs and the Reels].

Recorded sources: Drumlin Records BMNCD2, Brian McNamara - "Fort of the Jewels" (2004). Larraga Records, MMR112000, Mike & Mary Rafferty - "The Road to Ballinakill" (2001).
