Thread Name: How many of us play in a traditional band.
Subject: RE: How many of us play in a tradional band.
Hmmm, traditional? Let's see...I'm in a group called Eammon's Kitchen (with Jed Marum, who is a wonderful singer, musician, songwriter) and we play mostly Scot/Irish Celtic music, but throw in quite a bit of American and Appalachian songs, self-written songs on the Immigerant experience, the occaisional Van Morrison, Beatles, or even Violent Femmes song, depending upon the audience.

I sing, play fiddle, and guitar. Jed plays guitar, sings, plays banjo and Emily (see his article on restringing your Backpacker). We have a bass/guitarist. Himslef plays bodhran and other percussion, and another singer.

Drink? Don't mind if I do! And we can play all night if the inspiration is there.
