NOTE. Musicians, if you lve in the RI area and are interested in forming a Slow Jam Session please
e-mail us. If there's enough interest a time and place will be arranged.

If you are a musician or part of a band that specializes in Celic with emphasis on Scottish Traditional music
please let us know more. Plans are in the works to add a musician's Network page and we currently try to keep a list of Celtic bands and performers that may be of interest to those visiting the site.
