Tommy Peoples (born 1948) is an Irish fiddler.
He was born near St. Johnston, County Donegal, Ireland. He has been a
member of well known traditional Irish music groups, including 1691 and The
Bothy Band as well as performing solo since the late 1960s. He plays with a
unique virtuosic technique in the Donegal fiddle style. After moving to
Dublin in the 1960s, where he was employed as a policeman, he subsequently
moved to Clare and married Mary Linnane, daughter of Kitty Linnane,
long-time leader of the Kilfenora Céilí Band. He now resides in his home
village of St Johnston. His daughter Siobhán Peoples is a noted fiddler in
her own right.
Tommy Peoples is currently the Traditional Musician In Residence at The
