    Hi there,
    I am interested in your proposal, am a very keen musician and have been
    playing over 2 years. Started out as classical guitarist to learn music fundamentals and have completed Grade 8 RIAM exams in classical guitar
    with honours. Would like to get into trad music - have never played in a group
    but have learnt quite a few irish traditionals for fingerstyle guitar pieces
    include: spancil hill, carolans concerto, flowers of edinburgh, sheebeg sheemore ,harvest home, merrily dance the quaker, south wind, turkey in the
    straw etc. am quick at picking up new pieces Would like to hear from you. By the way am 32 yrs old near mullingar

    I have played with a number of popular ballad bands over some time, I would like a chat and perhaps you tell me what part of Kildare you operate from.
