"Strangely enough, I can't remember ever learning to play an instrument... As far back as I can remember, I could play music. There were always instruments in the house. When we were kids, we had no TV, so we had to make our own entertainment. We'd just pick up the instruments and start to play and sing."

Irish Traditional
A class act lads. these guys are made up of the best of the best from tipp and offaly. Now dont get me wrong the band changes as often as it rains in Ireland, And changes back again. After seeing this crew 3 times already it varied from 7 lads to around 20, and back to 7 again, nuts but brill. One not to be missed.

Roots
Johnny Moynihan of Sweeney’s Men, Planxty, DeDanann, The Fleadh Cowboys: vocals and accordeon, mandola, mandolin, fiddle and more.
Lena Ullman of The Higglers Jug Band: vocals and five-string banjo Frank Hall of The Monks, Easy Street Stringband, Rhythm In Shoes: vocals, fiddle, guitar Old-timey dance music from the southern Appalachian region of America, some say the errant son and daughter of Irish music, ranges in style from sensitive waltzes to nervy breakdowns, all safely musical. Wild and edgy, backbeat and funky, bluesy and ballady, the child is also father and mother to country and rock. It’s roots music, the spud and the bog carrot, butter fried and salted.
