Leo Butler
Flutes, Irish Tin Whistles, Vocals, Uillean Pipes

Leo is a natural fit for Dulahan, growing up in a household where traditional Irish music was a staple.  Raised on the Clancy Brothers' classics, he brings a perfect insight and traditional perspective when the band is offering up their own versions of an old pub favorite or a rowdy rebel song .  His melodic tin whistle and flute lines are also the dominant instrumental sound throughout Dulahan's original music.  A capable singer in his own right , Leo periodically joins the boys vocally during the course of a Dulahan show. Leo has added the Uillean Pipes to his growing list of instruments, and is featured on these traditional Irish pipes on The Old Country Wales -- the closing track of THE BLINK OF AN EYE, released June 1, 2007. 

 
Leo is father to two incredible children, Ian and Megan.
