I have played guitar since 1965, mostly fingerstyle using alternative tunings. Idiscovered Irish music in the 1980's. I started to play traditional airs and Carolan tunes on the guitar using fingerstyle tecniques. In the early 1990's I began playing bouzouki. While the bouzouki is used mostly as a backup instrument in bands, I use it to play lead on jigs and reels. My act is mostly instrumrntal, but I also sing traditional and original songs.
