I found the old group in Knoxville. They stress traditional Scottish Music, yes, but they also play trad irish, and it was the only trad. irish I could find when I lived there. In their newsletters, they include links and information to the irish sessions (which I have since found and posted); so, I thought I'd include their sessions here (I recognize the risk of offending some die-hard trad. irish players). As I said, we were a mixed bag of players, and Betsy herself is a top-shelf irish fiddler. So for anyone who is only able to play on a Sunday and can't make the full irish sessions, these folks will welcome any trad. irish players kindly and graciously. They're a wonderful bunch, and Betsy has always organized the sessions and events very well.
Anyways, here's the latest email on this month's session:
Betsy just mailed this out. I don't think she's doing the weekly Old Southern Brewery sessions anymore.
