    Default Tommy's Tarbukas and some Seán Nós



    Some of you may remember me asking about percussive dance tutorials a while back, and well, I found some!! I've been learning Seán Nós dance for about a month, and I love it!
    Also, this tune is really fun to play, but also quite hard. I definitely recommend it!
    Hope y'all enjoy it!

    Great picking, Gunnar. The dance steps are excellent too, and I love your Chicago-gangster style two-tone shoes. Now, can you play and dance at the same time?

    Really nice. Your skills are rapidly gaining momentum since you first started posting. It won't be long for me to see you on the big stage.
    Congratulations and keep up the excellent playing.

    Fine playing, but please credit the composer of Tommy's Tarbukas, Scottish fiddler Alasdair Frasier.

    Thanks,

    Thanks y'all!

    John, I cannot yet do them simultaneously, but I will work on it.

    Dave, I thought he may have been the composer, but didn't know for sure, I'll go add him in the description now
