|"Sing to him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy." Psalm 33:3|
Eighteen years of age... I'm a Christian, and I live in Texas, also known as God's wrath incarnate if you're here in the Summertime... I attempt to play whatever I can get my hands on, mostly flute, whistle, and I bash out a few chords on the guitar. I also write tunes... you can find the better ones here -

My favorite group at the moment is Flook, so if that scares you, you may want to run now...
However, I like and very much appreciate the good old players as much as I do the near-jazz stuff and Eastern European tunes.
I have a wide range of musical interests, this traditional (and contemporary) Irish being the strongest, next up being fingerstyle guitar, a la Andy McKee, and ambient music... I've also been getting strangely interested in Bulgarian music as well.. Egads.
I'm of the opinion that I'd rather just play the dad-gum tunes then have musical politics, at least to some degree. Good music is all relative to the ear of the listener, unless it's Celtic Woman, then you're just stupid.
