Friends:

I’m thrilled to announce not one, but TWO great house concerts this month, featuring some of the finest Irish musicians in the states! Since appearances by such players in our area are rare you won’t want to miss either one! These shows are exceptional opportunities to hear superb music in an intimate setting at my home in Murfreesboro.

Seating is limited so make your reservations today! Either reply to this e-mail or call me at 615-895-5042 to get your name on the list. Directions and more details will follow. Feel free to pass the word along to others. --Paul Wells

Tony DeMarco of New York City is one of the finest Irish fiddlers of his generation.

Tony’s new CD, The Sligo Indians, is one of the most exciting Irish fiddle albums of recent years and this concert is part of a southern tour to launch it in our area.

For those interested, I've posted a brief annotated discography of classic Irish traditional fiddle recordings on the Blog.

Maybe they're all in ... the woodshed ... ;0)

Looks like a very quiet place at the moment.

Maybe there needs to be a FiddleFest to follow the HammerJam, bringing all the fiddlers together.
