Just watched Sinners

Can anyone enlighten me on why they picked on Irish immigrants? Did blues get coopted by Irish historically?

I don’t get it

    The interesting thing is that “Remmick” isn’t an Irish surname. It’s of German origin, derived from “Roemmich”.

    It’s also worth noting that Remmick doesn’t start using an Irish accent nor singing Irish songs until AFTER pretending to be a poor southern blues singer has failed.
