New Fylde Bouzouki for John

John, a new player of the Irish Bouzouki joins us with a short tune on his lovely Fylde. Hope to see and hear more of him in the future.

Banwarth & Mignotte

A new video by Jean Banwarth together with Jérémie Mignotte on funky flute. They are playing a funky reel. The video is really short, but really good.

A new video from Julie! My heart skips a beat whenever I listen to her songs or watch her videos. She's simply the best female celtic singer.

Karl Nesbitt - A Bouzouki tutorial

Here's a little bouzouki tutorial from Karl Nesbitt. He demonstrates the accompaniment for the A-part oth the Salamanca reel. He is accompanied by Tommie Conniffe on the Accordion.


Nice finger picking on the bouzouki here from Karl Nesbitt. Two tunes: Ag Fagainnt Slan & The Battle of Aughrim.


Off-topic, but really good, here's a bodhran tutorial from Karl. Seems he likes Apple computers, just like me.
