Little Mickey Hickey

Slide · 12/8 · D major

Little Mickey Hickey is a traditional Irish slide in 12/8 meter, though its exact geographic origin and composer remain unknown. Set in the key of D major, the tune features the bouncy, flowing rhythm characteristic of the slide genre, which is typically played with a light and driving lilt suited for set dancing. Because detailed historical records for this specific double jig are scarce, its background relies entirely on oral transmission within traditional sessions.
