Mary Bergin, born in Shankill, County Dublin, Ireland, is a highly regarded Irish tin whistle player. Her parents, Joe and Máire, were musicians themselves, playing the melodeon and fiddle, which nurtured her early musical environment. Mary’s journey with the tin whistle began at the age of nine, influenced by hearing Willie Clancy play in an Oireachtas concert in Dublin.
