I am unabashedly Irish-American in culture and proclivity and have come to ITM fairly recently after admiring it from afar for years. My main instruments are tenor banjo and mandolin, but I can play the whistle a little and have the usual delusion that a bodhran is an easy instrument to play. I will also play guitar if forced to. My latest endeavor is to write about the banjo from the perspective of a student on http://www.banjosessions.com
I play in a weekly session in Plymouth, WI which all readers are welcome to attend.
