The Comhaltas Blog is Back..

Apologies to all who have been reading this blog, it's obviously been a long time without a post! With any luck things are back on track and new posts will appear on a regular basis from now on. I've posted the latest Comhlatas newsletter to the box widget on the right. Keep an eye on the blog for news on gigs, sessions and other events in and around Adelaide.

The Mulcahy Family from County Limerick are among my favourite players of ITM. I have two of their albums and really enjoy their lovely, laid back style. Click here to see them playing live on comhaltas.ie.
