Uilleann Piper / Bass Player

About Me

I'm an uilleann piper in Tucson, Arizona and have been playing for about eight years. My original background is in Highland piping and bass guitar, both of which I started playing about thirteen years ago. I join in at the local session every now and again and I'm an avid member of the Arizona Uilleann Pipers' Society. Anyone for some tunes?Thanks for visiting, cheers!

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 9/22/2006
Band Members: Myself and whoever's up for a few tunes over some pints!
Influences: MySpace has opened my eyes, ears, and mind to a huge world of diverse and magnificent musicianship, adding a new influence or inspiration to my list almost daily. In which case, I'm only listing the few bands and soloists that sparked my interest and made an initial impact on my development in regards to uilleann piping, bass playing, and electronic composition.
