More About Me
IRISH TRADITIONAL
I have been playing a mixture of different regional styles which include Clare, Kerry and a twist of Donegal. My first lessons and exposure came directly visits with the late Bobby Casey when a resident in Dublin and James Kelly.
I have done alot of transcription work which has offered my playing an understanding of traditional playing.
My emphasis would be rhythm and phrasing even before embellishments.
APPALACHIAN/OLD TIME
Since 1995 I have been playing several different styles of Appalachian fiddling for clogging groups including my own collaboration with my wife as fiddlenfeet ( please see our website). I began performing with the touring company Rhythm In Shoes out of Dayton, Oh. As with Irish I have done and continue to do transcription work of the older early 20 th century fiddlers. I live in Bloomington Indiana home to the IU Archives of Traditional Music and very importantly some of the best old time players in the country.
