Mostly traditional Irish, Scottish, and maritime Canadian music, performed on a variety of acoustic instruments.
Jesse Ferguson is a poet and musician, specializing in celtic music. He grew up in Cornwall, Ontario, Canada. He plays a Washburn acoustic guitar, a Hondo Mandolin and a generic bodhran. He also plays pennywhistle, fife, bagpipe chanter, fiddle and various percussion instruments. For those who are interested, he's of Scottish and French descent. Also, when he plays Irish or Scottish "rebel songs," he doesn't take any side in the longstanding political quarrels in Ireland and the UK. For him, the music is the important thing.

* My CD, New Old Songs, is now available for purchase: http://cdbaby.com/cd/fergusonj esse. I recorded and mastered this solo CD (I play all instruments on it), and I also designed it. It is also available at: Product sales page: http://Kunaki.com/Sales.asp?PI D=PX00Z17KSO.
Finally, you can download the tracks at Amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/New-Old- Songs/dp/B001YWA4DG.
