My main instrument the last few years is the OM. I like Irish traditional music but I'm not a traditionalist, although when playing alone, that's more the way it goes. My rythym accompaniment style derives from the bass drum in a Scottish pipe band I heard once: not strictly trad, but it drives so well!
