Try JibJab Sendables !I began my musical profession as a central New York based solo performer playing Irish Republican Rebel songs.I've performed in Ireland, and throughout the northeast U.S. I've shared billing with acts such as Solas, Black 47, The Prodigals, and Tommy Makim, and Eileen Ivers. I've also played as an opening act for international recording artists Hadrian's Wall.
In early 2006 I joined my old friends Cliudan in playing percussion on their cd "Smoke & Strong Whiskey" and also the most recent "Anymore." I am now a permanent fixture with Cliudan and will be touring extensively forever more.

..I work in close association with my local Irish community and its various member groups. I also work in aiding the Ancient Order of Hibernians (AOH), CGRP (Concerned Group for Republican Prisoners), and the Irish Republican Socialist Network in contributing time, talent, and resources in their various fundraising efforts. Cliudan's latest CD "Anymore" Is available NOW! Contact me at [email protected] for a copy.
