The following is a few heart felt words sent to me from Sean Connell in America whose appreciation for
Irish folk music has grown substantially over the years thanks to this site.Thanks for the help.
I wish I could shake your hand. I am 31 years old and have played the guitar since I was 15 or so. I have always been into
folk music, I incorporated some Irish folk into my American folk. But I was never as focused on Irish music as I am now. I
owe it all to you. I have been using this site for several years. I cant be sure how long. I think I was with you since real
early because I have seen the site grow exponentially. I remember when it was alot smaller. I try to turn as many people on
to it as possible. Anyway, this site alone has been the reason for my rapid learning of Irish folk, my confidence to go to
the sessions, and reaching my ultimate goal of forming my own band with a fiddler and a mandolin/bohdran player with me on
guitar and vocal. I cant thank you enough. I only hope we can have a session together someday. Keep up the good work, you
are the only one who is doing it, and you are doing it for free, because you love Irish music, just like me--- Sean Connell RI USA originally from Boston
I would just like to say Thank You on behalf of all the budding Irish Folk singers and players out there who need sites
like this. It is very hard, as you know, to find places that have good, solid Folk songs in chords that us amateur guitar
players can understand and play. My brother and I are always on the look out for new songs we can play at our Hoolie
nights at his house for our friends. This is an awesome site!! So once again Thank You and know that your work
doesn't go unappreciated.
Sincerely Your Fellow Folk Musician,
Maitiú
Excellent web site, I am new to learning the Irish pipes and am always looking for Tunes and I found some nice Tin Whistle
tunes on your site I can play on the pipes. My grandfather was from Belfast, so I guess Irish music is deep in me because
I really enjoy it
Thanks for the info on your web site
Cheers

Hi Martin,
It hardly seems right to say a simple "Thank You". I grew up
on the Avalon peninsula in Newfoundland and Irish music is part of the vernacular. I've been playing (maybe just playing
with?) the guitar for ~35yrs and I decided to try to learn to play tin whistle. I found your site while looking for
some whistle songs - what a thing of beauty! My guitar collection just grew and I couldn't be happier to have found
a site maintained by someone who clearly enjoys the beauty, history, poetry, and musicality of these songs.
