SCCDB originally ascribed this to "traditional", but both <<https://tunearch.org/wiki/Banshee_(1)_(The)>> and <<https://thesession.org/tunes/8>> attribute it to James McMahon.

The tune has many aliases given in its entry on The Session. At least one of these  appears to be a duplicate in SCDDB (see <<ddt:McMahon's#13626>>) which ought to be merged with that entry.

It is not clear if <<ddt:Julia McMahon#2375>> is also the same tune.
