This is definitely making me want to pick up the violin again, after almost 1 year and a half of neglect. Irish tunes made love it enough to learn the instrument, irish tunes will bring me back to it ☺. Such a fan of this slower tempo~
Hi Ellery! Hope you’re alright and shall be back on the Heaton’s super sesh show :) I was looking for Sleepy Maggie reel. Instead I found most of the time Drowsy Maggie in my research results instead. Always very nice to hear yer fidiling. Sláinte agat! X 😉
Thanks you very much ,I've learn a new tune "Far from home" . I really appreciate the slow beat, it helps a lot to hear the ornementations. Please post some more tunes to learn as a set if you have the tile, and you are very charming. Regards from France. dav
ps: So you replaced Samantha Hunt in Gaelic storm? Or there was someone between? The life expectancy of a fidil player seems fairly short in that band. 😛
Haha, there have been many fiddle players between me and Samantha, and many after. :) Most fiddle players have done the job for a few years, but being on the road full time was fun for a while, but I enjoy being with my kids more than being in a hotel room eating at Denny's. :) The glamour is real!!! I actually have a trio with two other fiddlers from GS: www.thebowtides.com - we'll be at a festival in Chicago in Aug 2022.
Check out my new trio The Bow Tides- with two other fellow former Gaelic Storm fiddlers Jessie Burns and Katie Grennan - Kickstarter coming in Sept 2022! www.kickstarter.com/projects/thebowtides/the-bow-tides-first-album?ref=discovery&term=the%20bow%20tides
@@elleryklein-fiddler9330 Damn! I wasn’t notified 😿 So sorry to only see the reply now, Ellery. I dunno Denny’s. Is it descent quality restaurant? I never heard of it before actually. I know a mom love more to spend time with her kids. But wasn’t the money alright during those tours? Tough choice I suppose. Kind Regards, Thomas
@@elleryklein-fiddler9330 Ah, 2 other fiddle veterans of Gaelic Storm. How nice! 😺 And no guitar or other backing instrument? The closest band I know that might resembles is that Kevin Burke, Christian Le Maître and Nicolas Kemener one :) Thanks a lot for keeping me posted, Ellery. Hope you enjoy the end of Summer. T. Sláinte agat! 🍻
What a lovely relaxed approach to your music.

Sleepy Maggie tends to be the Scottish title for this tune.
