There is only one Irish player you could have gotten where I would gladly give my money to you to learn from and he’s the one you got!
Now that I’m spending time (and money :D) here on the site, can I just say a couple of things:

Just got new strings, put them on and the tone is fuzzy. I guess Dominants don’t work on my fiddle.
What strings do you use? I’m looking for strings that are bright and easily responsive. I’d love to know what brand people use. Thanks!

She will be in-studio in March of 2016, and now is the time to get your lesson requests in. We’ve already had one request, but there is plenty of room for more suggestions at this time.

Hi, Sal. That’s a good idea. I’ll take a look at the possibility of embedding a download link to each guitar track. In the mean time, I’ve sent you an email to follow up on what tracks you’re looking for. Thanks!

Any chance we could get downloadable guitar tracks? Then we could loop them and practice endlessly… This is a great site, I didn’t know Texas style was so much fun! Thanks
