Traditional Irish Ballad

Traditional Irish

I play traditional Irish tunes, ballads and airs. I also cover folk rock tunes and write a bit. The songs I write tend to be folk rock.
Band/artist history
I've been at it a while. I work hard on producing a warm, rich sound with a nice tempo.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
I play sessions and gigs in the central Connecticut area. It's essential for instrumental musicians to play live for the enjoyment of fans and the input of other musicians. Unexpected listener appreciation is always nice.
Your musical influences
Growing up it was Dylan, Clapton, Tull, etc. Then I took classical guitar and backed into Carolan, the Irish harper bard. Then I found jigs and reels through great men like Eddie Burke and Tom Walsh. PV O'Donnell is great on fiddle. Great Irish bands are Dervish and Lunasa.
What equipment do you use?
Taylor acoustic and a Eastman fiddle. SONAR for the studio.
Anything else?
Thanks for coming by.
