I just sing unaccompanied! I have a great fondness for Traditional Irish Music, played at a tempo that was designed for the Music. Hate those musicians/groups that play at 100 miles an hour and miss most of the notes! I also like Country, Classical and Folk Music in general. I sing for my own enjoyment and I hope you enjoy some of the songs here.

Sorry it's taken me this long to get back to you. I really like your voice--nice, steady and strong, and of course, I love the songs.
