My name is Laura and I am (mainly) a flute and whistle player from Chicago. (I play other things too, but they would be rather hard to list)
Frankie Kennedy is (or was) my idol in the music world, but I also love Garry Shannon , Gary Hastings, Matt Molloy and Liz Carroll. I am a big fan of Cara Butler's dancing.
Altan is my favourite band. You can see them at:
If you have never heard them (horror of horrors!), you must. They are the cream of the crop of Ulster musicians. Very nice people, all of them. They need a flute, but otherwise, they're perfect!
