High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Padraig O'Keeffe (Irish: Pdraig Caoimh) (1887 - 1963) was a noted Irish traditional musician.O'Keeffe was born in Gleantan, Castleisland, County Kerry, into a large family where his father was the local national school headmaster. He was reared by his maternal grandparents. The area, part of the Sliabh Luachra region, was well-versed in music and Padraig was taught to play the fiddle by his uncle, Cal. He went to Dublin to train as a national school teacher and on qualifying returned to teach in his father's old school in 1915. He was not happy in the job and left about 1920. The remainder of his life was spent teaching and playing the fiddle in his distinctive style.
