Friday music sessions are an opportunity to enjoy Irish music together, and to learn a few new tunes. This webpage is meant to serve as a resource for Teelin musicians, but most communications and updates are still sent by email. (Big THANK YOU to Beth K for gathering the sheet music posted on this website!)
Please read this email explaining the Teelin Friday Sessions...
New! Tentative tune lists for each session will be published here as available. (Red indicates an active link; black font means that there is a session planned for that day, but a tune list has not yet been decided.
