Niagara Folk & Irish Music Session – Every Sunday!

1.30pm To 4.30pm
At Doc Magilligan’s

*Comfy setting (candles on tables etc)

*All musicians welcome!

*Bring your own instrument (fiddles / accordions / whistles / mandolins / banjo / guitar / Bodhran etc)

*Folk and Irish is the general style but we’re open to anything fun! (East coast tunes / original songs / parodies / country & acoustic versions of rock songs!)

We want to create a fun, welcoming environment where those interested in folk and Irish music can have fun playing music & singing together. It’s not a gig. We sit around a table and go around in a circle where everyone has an equal chance to lead a song or tune.

Everyone is equally welcome – from beginner musicians to experts.

It’s a chance to share a few tunes or songs you like with others & to learn old tunes / songs & accompany others.

Music is a catalyst for happiness. Friends meet. Enough said.

Sessions are interesting phenomena. They are the best example of what Irish music is about. It’s an intangible thing that has to be experienced to be understood. The session is the life–blood of traditional music, and with the session goes the associated notion of “craic”.
Every Tuesday at the Corktown Pub, 175 Young Street, Hamilton, Ontario, L8N 1V7
Music will get underway at 6pm until 7 pm for trad tunes. 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm songs and tunes.
We hope to see you there!
