What we’re about
Anyone interested in getting together to play some trad Irish music?
All instruments welcome. These will be slower sessions.
If you are an advanced player this may not be the group for you but you are most welcome to join but just bring your patience for us not quite beginner/not quite intermediate musicians. All expertise welcome to help the group too :)
If you are a beginner feel free to join but note these are not teaching sessions.
Where: right now this will need to be in some quite corner of a park with mask wearing (where possible) and social distancing.
