It's been a while since I've shared any progress or updates on my progress learning the Irish Flute. Join me as I talk a little about my progress and struggles on the flute and play a little reel at the end. Thanks for sticking with me through the journey! Cheers.

It's been a while since I've had the opportunity to upload here. Here is a recent tune I learned that will need some practice, but thought I would share the early stages. I'm a little out of practice on the pipes as I've been working on fixing some small issues and doing some maintenance. I feel I have this set almost up to snuff, so hoping to get back into the swing of things.

Some life updates and picking up the pipes again after a month long intermission. Attempting an O'Carolan tune called Princess Royal.

Taking some time to explore Northern Ontario and play some tunes along the way. This gem of a place is called Potholes Provincial Park. Unique cavities (potholes) in the rock were formed in a section of the Kinniwabi River by the swirling, abrasive action of rock and water draining from a shrinking continental ice sheet. A unique sight to see!! The jigs played in this video are "The Rolling Wav...

Today I bring you a tune from my vehicle. This is a jig called "Condon's Frolics". I will try and play this on the pipes soon, but thats difficult right now, as I will explain in the video. At the end of the video, I share some news with you regarding some recent life changes.

Hello! Thanks for checking out this video. This is a set of tunes I have been working on. The first is an Air called May Morning Dew. Taught to me by my piping teacher Simon. You can hear a great recording of this tune by him on his album "Half Way There" here: ua-cam.com/video/EuX84aFIX5Q/v-deo.html The second tune is a reel called "Belles of Tipperary" (also known as The New Policeman). My ve...

Here is a quick update video on how things are coming along on the Irish Flute. I am sorry I haven't been more active documenting the progress, but progress has been pretty slow until about 2-3 weeks ago when things started to come together well. This has been way more of a challenge than I ever expected but it's very rewarding. Check out this link for my first week on the Irish Flute: ua-cam.c...

Hello, here is a quick tune for St. Patricks day! Thanks for watching!

A fun jig and some discussion about the Lucky Penny in transactions.

Took a road trip to visit a talented musician and film a collaboration on the tune "An Spailpín Fánach". Many thanks for introducing me to this fun new tune. This day was filled with many laughs and lots of learning for me.

Just being silly and testing some ideas out. Let me know in the comments if you want to see more content like this!! Drone sounds used with permission from the talented Jon Antonsson on www.tunesandtools.com/ or www.youtube.com/@TunesAndTools

Something a little different for my Channel today. A friend requested a pipe tune for Robbie Burns Day. I decided to try a more appropriate bagpipe style for the Scottish celebration. Figured I'll post it here for entertainment purposes. Haha I am not sure if the tune is appropriate, but its one of the few I remember from my Highland Bagpipe Days. Pardon some poor fingering technique, I had to ...

The Rolling Waves jig filmed in snowy Northern Ontario. I had not plans to film a video, I did not bring my audio recorder, but it was so quiet and lovely out I wanted to try. The camera didn't do the ambiance justice and there was a natural reverb in the forest. However, it was a lovely walk to exercise my good old dog Sam.
