O’ Death (Traditional Folk Ballad) - Sam Shackleton

Playing a few verses from the traditional folk ballad “O’ Death” on the banjo by the fireplace at my mother’s house on the lovely Isle of Harris, Scotland. This is a great American folk ballad and is commonly sung in the Appalachian region, where it descends from much older Scottish and English folk ballads carried there by the many thousands of emigrants that made the long voyage. I really hope you enjoy, this song will be featuring on my upcoming album, to be the first to hear and also to check out my other music make sure to follow me on all streaming platforms with the link in my bio, cheers! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🪕🇺🇸
