I can't look at this just now, but I presume that's Dan playing. in the past few years at the Willie Clancy week, a "Session" session has been arranged, and Dan turned up about half-way through last year. I remember thinking "WTF ?" when he produced this collection of bamboo tubes out of a bag, but then away he went on "Trim The Velvet". Absolutely incredible. Just when you think you've seen it all........................ Hope he's back this year.
Irish tunes on a khene/khaen. Amazing.

Dan rocks. He is hoping to be around WCSS this year.

It bears an uncanny similarity to the banjo/saxophone combination in recordings such as "always room in our house"

I suppose if you changed the name to "Keane" someone would get upset.
Maybe this guy could team up with the Nintendo virtuoso and start their own session.
Unique and interesting.

I finally got around to listening. Wow! I wonder how long it would take to learn to play.
