1. Paddy's Green Shamrock Shore / Scatter the Mud Traditional song followed by traditional jig

Linda (vocals, bodhran), John (guitars), Susie (fiddle), Tom (flute, low whistle, whistle)
This song really spoke to Linda in a deep way. In Nutshell's version of this Old Crow Medicine Show song, Linda and John begin as a thoughtful reflection, the whole band joins in and it moves into hopefulness and fun and then ends as a reverent, multi-harmony prayer of sorts.
