Hi,
My name is Michael. I have been playing music for over 20 years.
I started on the tin whistle at the age of 5. Galway man moving to NEW YORK in March!!
Then I picked up the flute at the age of 10.
I moved away from the traditional scene at the age of fifteen when I picked up the acoustic. In the last few years I have played frequently with other musicians, trying to experiment with different genres. Specifically combining folk with traditional music.
I am always and trying new things. In the last few months, I have added the mandolin as an extra sound. I hope to also pick up the bouzouki
I currently play with a number of different groups, ranging from pop/rock, folk, Irish folk, traditional music.
But I am a folk/Irish folk musician at heart.
Im on this, because I would like to meet more musicians, get more ideas, and even share mine.
I am from Galway, but moving to NEW YORK in March. Hope to start picking up gigs!!!
My number is 0857246575
