heike

I am a German living in San Diego, California, playing Irish music.

I played the fiddle for over 7 years and the box (BC) for about two years, but due to health reasons I had to give up (hopefully only temporarily) both fiddle and box a good while ago. :(
As many clouds have a silver lining, I found my way to the anglo concertina, and play - or attempt to play - mostly in the style of Micheal O Raghallaigh. Yep, quite a challenge! :-)

San Diego has a fairly active Irish music scene, so I regularly play in two sessions a week (wish there were more! - There are, but all on the same two days!).
