I had been waiting till my laptop was fixed to go ahead and sign up as a member, but I got tired of forgetting to type my name in on posts....so I went ahead and joined up too.

****Tansy is the former "GUEST Laoise Feerick" ****

I am from NYC but live in Los Angeles. My family's folk traditions are Irish-American and Adirondack. I have a sis who is active in folk circles in Rhode Island specialising in Civil War era music. Her name is Maureen Danforth and she and her husband Dean Danforth have a band which plays locally that I think is currently called King's Court. They do contemporary sacred music.

I am currently without a circle to sing with. Would love to meet up with local Mudcatters, especially if they need another voice. A Muscle disorder prevents me from playing an instrument that much anymore I love Louvin Brothers style harmonies and would be thrilled to just be able to sit in once in a while.
