Dervish
One of my favourite bands. OK, the last album is a bit disappointing. Nevertheless this is a brilliant video.

Dan Beimborn - Cittern Jig
"I Buried My Wife and Danced on Top of Her" and "the Mooncoin". These were played on a 21" scale Sobell cittern. Tuning is GDAEA with a 4-course capo on the 5th, to make (G)GDAD. You must see this video, it's brilliant!
Bailliekins-Farewell to old Ireland
A new post from Bailliekins. Great playing and singing as ever. The melody is different from that of Andy Irvine.

Here's another fine video starring Guitar Cittern and Geyerleier:

Bodhrannf

This is a fine piece played on an Octave Mandolin. Olivieruldry is playing an own tune, influenced by traditional music.
