Ireland ( ; Irish: "Éire" ] ), also known as the Republic of Ireland ("Poblacht na hÉireann "), is a sovereign state in north-western Europe occupying 26 of 32 counties of the island of Ireland.
 The capital and largest city is Dublin, which is located on the eastern part of the island, and whose metropolitan area is home to around a third of the country's 4.75 million inhabitants.
 The state shares its only land border with Northern Ireland, a part of the United Kingdom.
 It is otherwise surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, with the Celtic Sea to the south, Saint George's Channel to the south-east, and the Irish Sea to the east.
 It is a unitary, parliamentary republic.
 The legislature, the "Oireachtas ", consists of a lower house, "Dáil Éireann ", an upper house, "Seanad Éireann ", and an elected President ("Uachtarán ") who serves as the largely ceremonial head of state, but with some important powers and duties.
 The head of government is the "Taoiseach " (Prime Minister, literally 'Chief', a title not used in English), who is elected by the Dáil and appointed by the President; the Taoiseach in turn appoints other government ministers.

 For some years, Sonny has got his own solo band called Radar, although he still plays with Tír na nÓg and Scullion.
In Irish mythology and folklore, Tír na nÓg (] ; "Land of the Young") or Tír na hÓige ("Land of Youth") is one of the names for the Otherworld, or perhaps for a part of it.
 It is depicted as a supernatural realm of everlasting youth, beauty, health, abundance and joy.
 Its inhabitants are the Tuatha Dé Danann, the gods of pre-Christian Ireland.
 In the "echtrae" (adventure) and "immram" (voyage) tales, various Irish mythical heroes visit Tír na nÓg after a voyage or an invitation from one of its residents.
 They reach it by entering ancient burial mounds or caves, or by going under water or across the sea.

Tír na nÓg is the first album by Irish band Tír na nÓg.

 They are often considered as one of the first progressive folk bands with other artists like Nick Drake or groups like Pentangle.
 Their music mainly consists of their own compositions, based on strong Celtic roots and typically featuring intricate acoustic guitar playing and close harmony singing.
 In their early years, they toured the folk clubs of the United Kingdom or internationally as a support act for several rock bands.
 Today, they regularly give concerts, especially in Ireland.
Scullion are an Irish folk rock band that formed in the mid-1970s.
