Hi Stephen ,play guitar but mostly sing ,want to get a few to do serious gigs.

Damn! it's a pity ye are based in Dublin as I'd love to meet up, based in Limerick, however some of my family live in Dublin so never a major problem staying up there. I am a wily oul balladeer who plays guitar (mainly in DADGAD) main influences would be Luke Kelly & The Dubliners, Christy, Damien Dempsey, Paul Brady... If ye are stuck feel free to get in touch. Plenty of time on me hands at the mo.

mariatchi

Hi ye Brousuka,thanks for your interest,it's a bitch you're a bit far ! but I'll send ye me number for when ye're up this neck of the woods .At the very least we can arrange a session.
