There is an Irish session every Sunday night in Berkeley hosted by Shay Black that she might like to go to. There is singing as well as tunes there. As Mick noted, there is a contingent of mudcatters in the area. PJ and Dave Swan, Winter's Wages, Melani, rIGGY, radriano, BSeed, and Elise are in the bay area, with Joe Offer about an hour and a half's drive away. I'm sure we can put our collective heads together and introduce her to the local music scene, and maybe host a singing session while she's here. PM me with details of her trip, if you'd like.-chanteyranger
