Broad Black Brimmer
Broad Black Brimmer is a modern Irish political ballad composed by Art McMillen that emerged during the Troubles. Set as a 2/4 polka in G major, the tune carries a distinctly spirited yet defiant character typical of rebel songs. While its musical structure follows standard traditional dance rhythms, its historical association remains firmly rooted in modern Irish republican culture rather than older folk traditions.
