We are family and friends, gathering Thursday evenings since 1998 for dinner, laughter, and music rooted in Traditional Irish Music: jigs, reels, hornpipes, aires, recitations, stories, and songs...... original tunes, songs, and recitations, from traditional to pub songs, comedic songs, from toe-tapping to deeply moving....and it's always fun.

We play fiddle, flutes, whistles, mandolin, bouzouki, acoustic guitar, tenor banjo, harmonica, bodhran, and bass. And, we love to sing, oh how we love to sing.
