10: Sam McNicholl - a podcast by Ainle Ó Cairealláin

This week I sat down with Sam McNicol who runs the famous public house and music venue Connolly’s of Leap, plays with the band Talos, and arguably has the best moustache in Ireland. We dug deep into the history of Connolly's of Leap and what it was like for Sam growing up in a venue that attracted artists such as the The Frames, The Pale, Garth Hudson from The Band, Donal Lunny, and John Martyn, and how the Pink Floyd hammer flag came to be a part of the infamous set up at Connolly’s. We also discussed Talos and their success, the excitement that comes with doing something that you absolutely love to do, and juggling the two big commitments of being a professional musician and business owner.
