SO MUCH FUN Grooving in Castletownbere, in the incredible weather and landscape with awesome percussionist Ronan Skillen @didgi_taal This is a new collab combining electronic compositions and live percussion. We’re having a great time developing this!! Still looking for a name we called ourselves EARO for this gig. Go raibh maith agat to Davie and Jo @joannefaulknershiatsu for inviting us and congratulations on the new book and new life step. Really a wonderful experience to be back in this part of West Cork after a long time, Kealkill stone circle included. #dancemusic #electronicmusıcandpercussion #livemusic #dance #westcork

Bainigí sult as Lá fhéile Padraig! Me, I will be spending the day doing very little except this 🙃 The Knights of Saint Patrick is a jig played by Donegal master fiddler John Doherty, this version recorded in the early 1980s. It was part of a vast repertoire of music that he and his family preserved over many generations, and we are lucky he recorded some of it for us over numerous decades. John Simi as he was known around the county. There has been a lot of great work written and recorded about John and his family, but my favourite is when a neighbour or someone in the locality where I grew up tells me a story of their own of having met him and learned from him. #bodhrán #stpatricksday2026☘️🌈🎩 #láfhéilepadraig #donegal #percussionist

A Murmuration of Doors and Walls - part of a fun and explorative collaboration led by @emilieconwayart with @donachao Dennis Cassidy & @derekwhyte.bass We play the objects, fixtures, furniture and space of the @projectartscentre without drums, developing a piece of music to play for visually impaired audiences. Can’t wait to bring the audience into this! My first time working with these three great musicians, really enjoying it. #projectartscentre #percussionlove #collaboratingalways
