Loading out for a weekend set of shows in Kennewick with Leannan Sidhe - if you’re in the area, here’s the Facebook event, c’mon out!

It’s very strange to start learning the violin (or, in folk terms, the fiddle), just because it’s an instrument that anyone around me actually plays. Honestly not entirely sure what to do with that.
