Here is a little fiddle tune reel called "Paddy Fahey's." There are a lot of Paddy Fahey reels, and I'm not sure if this one has a particular number to help distinguish it from the others... It's a fun reel! I tend to confuse it with Hughie Shorties reel....They are both kind of similar with lots of G major arpeggios.

I was asked if I could play Jig of Slurs, so here it is! The last part especially is kind of tricky to play, but it is a really high-energy and fun jig! Usually I'll play Atholl Highlander after this tune. It seems like a lot of people put those two tunes together. I thought for sure this was a Scottish jig, but googling seems to also say it's Irish...hmmmmm.... It sounds pretty Scottish to me... I played it a bit on the fast side because I wasn't sure if the whole tune would fit in 1 minute at a slower speed... ⌛
I hope you are having a good weekend!

Here is a fun Irish jig called, "Cliffs of Moher." I had made a tutorial if this tune in my YouTube channel, and I had also made a music video with this tune, but here is a more casual version. In the past, I've received several online comments saying I play the song with the wrong style, but this seems to be how I hear this song played in Colorado. I'm sure all of these tunes are played differently in different regions of the world.
I was super surprised how beat-driven the Scottish sessions were when I visited Scotland -- they reminded me a little more of Old-Time sessions than the "Celtic" sessions I often go to in Colorado. Someday, I hope to visit all around Ireland, and listen to how people play these tunes in live sessions. Hopefully I'll be able to pick up on the different styles a little! If it's anything like my visit to Scotland, I'm sure everything will sound quite different from what I hear at Colorado sessions!

Here is a fun Irish polka called, "Rakes of Mallow." It is an old dance tune that has had many modern variations made that have been featured in different films and events. I think Leroy Anderson even composed an arrangement of this tune!
Whenever I add this tune to a set, I usually try to put it at the end. For some reason, this song tends to make the set feel like it "speeds up" and gains a lot of energy, even if you hold a steady tempo.
It's a common tune where I live, and I think it has a catchy melody!

I started to go to a new session! Whenever I try to go to a new session, I instantly feel like I know almost none of the tunes that everyone is playing, lol! It seems folk music repertoire is very regional no matter where you go... :o They play this song a lot, so I really wanted to learn it. I've been wanting to learn it for a while now, but it's one of those tunes that needs a lot of focus and practice... It's still a little rough, but I can now sort if keep up with everyone! :D
I really like this tune! Once I can think of a good set to put it in, I think this one could turn into a music video! ^_^
I hope you have a good week!

Sorry I been away for a while, but I’m back. I did a road trip from Boston to Tennessee with some close friends of mine. It was a great trip and well needed. I’m ready to get back on the music grind. Here’s a little jam video on “Isn’t She Lovely” with @jonathanhwarren and @melwiz6 when I was in Tennessee. I met Johnathan through IG! He replied on my story asking to hang and that’s how this happened. Still surreal to meet people from the gram. But anyways enjoy! Will be back on making regular content this week!
