    Hello,

    First of all we are based in Dublin and have been playing as a 3 piece band with guitars, banjo/madolin, whistles and voice between the three of us.
    We have been playing together for a little while now and were going to begin seeking some gigs in town and perhaps in the country if needs be.

    Unfortunately due to personal circumstances one of our brilliant players ( Banjo/Mandolin) has had to tend to other issues and can no longer be with us.
    So we are looking for 1 or 2 musicians to join us and help bring some of the color that will be lost in lack of the Banjo and Mandolin.

    We are not necessarily looking for another Banjo/Mandolin player- a fiddle, whistle or any other melodic traditional instrument would be great.

    We are open to many options-

    We play a variety of Irish ballads some As Gaeilge, we also do a few Jigs and Reels to break up the songs. We have quite allot of songs down and we are always learning more so any new stuff would be welcome and it is not a strict program by any means. We are looking to get started with some gigs as soon as is feasible and this has been a set back but with a bit of practice a person or two could be grafted in.

    Ok hope to hear from ye

    Jack
