MICK FINN'S. AKA and see "Cill Abhaill," "Farewell Reel," "Killavil Reel (1) (The)," "Tilly Finn's." Irish, Reel. D Major. Standard tuning (fiddle). AA'BB'. Mick Finn is the name of a late fiddler from County Galway. However, 'Mick' was also the nickname of Michael Finn, father of famous Sligo fiddler Fred Finn, both from Killavil, Sligo. Given the connection with the alternate title ("Killavil Reel") it is likely the title refers to the Sligo Finn, not the Galway fiddler.
