I enjoy playing "traditional" folk music and song from America, the U.K. and Ireland. I have been playing coffeehouses, clubs and some festivals as a solo performer and in several bands (country, Irish, folk, bluegrass) since the early 1970's. I am seeking a like-minded musician to sing and play music primarily from the U.K. and Ireland.
