| Celtic Harp and Scottish Gaelic Performance and Instruction |
I play Scottish Gaelic music on the Celtic harp, sing Gaelic songs, and teach both the Scottish Gaelic language and song repertoire. Based in Seattle and Vancouver BC, I am thoroughly immersed in the local Gaelic scene. I also love Irish music and playing Cape Breton fiddle tunes.
In addition to performing and teaching, I can be convinced to be the Fear an Taighe (master of ceremonies) at céilidhs. If you don't know what a céilidh is, there's a page all about them linked below.
I've also been known to teach people Scottish céilidh dances.
