Bob MacLean

Hi! Bob MacLean in Guelph, Ontario Canada. I am a guitarist that is always looking for more tune sources to work into my tune sets for fingerstyle guitar. I use trad session tunes as well as trad song material for my arranging. I play standard tuning but mostly play altered - DADGAD, CGCGCD, CGDGBD and variants of the above. I also play with a great bunch of players in my area - Eva McCauley, Robin Aggus, Jacob McCauley that are collectively known as WhirlyGig. We play for ceilidhs and other events. Was in Ireland recently and had the chance to hear the Kilfenora Ceilidh Band on a Sunday evening - a brilliantly special night!
