I have been playing Traditional Music for nearly 50 years. I became interested after seeing The Dubliners in concert in Clonmel, Tipperary in 1971. Started playing the music while working as a Barman & going to the sessions in Sandy Bells, Edinburgh. Busked on the streets of Dublin full time for a year, before joining a folk band & moving with them to West Berlin, playing in the Irish Pubs six nights a week. After moving to Co. Antrim, I became a full time teacher of Traditional Music in local primary schools in 1995, until 2019, after running my own music school for a few years. I am now retired but still playing local sessions each week & teaching a little.
