He learned many stories from his father, who was also a storyteller and a singer.
Now Eamonn tells stories to children and adults and has told in many different countries England Ireland, Finland, USA and Australia.
Eamonn will be bringing out an audio collection of folk tales later this year and you can watch him perform HERE at the World Storytelling Cafe.
Our story is an old folktale that has travelled the world - it has been told by travelling communities, such as the Romani, for centuries. It has lots of names but is usually called 'The Three Golden Hairs of the Sun King'. We love this story and its introduction of the Fate sisters - you can find out more about the Three Fates Here.How many other things come in threes in this story?
