Description
Hi there! I am flattered that you're interested in knowing more about me. The image to the left is taken of me, something like 15 years (and several pounds!) ago, with two lovely lasses at a local renaissance faire.
Who am I? Just a guy that loves the tinwhistle. I'm no Mary Bergin, Joanie Madden, or L.E. McCullough...though I hope to be that good some day! I've been playing since 1995, and have been fortunate to play alongside some top-notch irish musicians, like E.J. Jones, Larry Mallette, Turlach Boylan , among others. I was blessed in my early whistling that such great musicians lived and played in Houston where I lived, and were active participants in the Irish sessions there.
I played in an Irish band called Echoes of Ireland in houston, and in January 2003, we had the privilege of playing for Charles Sheehan, Consul General of Northern Ireland, in his first visit to Houston in 14 years, for a Special Olympics benefit. They unfortuantely broke up shortly after I moved to the Dallas-Fort Worth area for work. I did hook up with a great group of folks here, and we play most every friday night at the Tipperary Inn .
