Liam O'Flynn (Irish: Liam Óg Ó Floinn, b. 1945) is a well known traditional Irish musician. He was born in Kill County Kildare to musical parents, his father played the fiddle and his mother played the piano. After his first encounter with the uillean pipes, the greatest influences of his development were Leo Rowsome, Willie Clancy, and Séamus Ennis. Liam won recognition by winning prizes at the Oireachtas Festival and the Fleadh Cheoil in the 1960s. He is sometimes billed as Liam Óg Ó Floinn (i.e., Liam O'Flynn, Jr.)
