The Newry Highwayman

A traditional irish folk tune performed by Solas, of which I drum to. It's a good tune I've enjoyed for many years and now pass it along to you!

Good work, how long have you been playing?

for people just getting started on the Bodhran al i can say is just play along to diffrent music, master the stroke and the rhythm

I've been at it....I think 3 years now? I know some of my videos are close to 2 years old, so I didn't really start playing it til around then (sort of tinkered for a year before getting serious).

So I got my bodhran yesterday...if ya have any tips for a beginner...I am open to them!!

[irishlad6]

I'd love to help! According to some people who insist I don't "play correctly" or even well enough to teach it, I toss back the reality that once again I played a live show at an irish pub and had professional musicians applaud my band and each person's personal ability! So there, naysayers!

Any how, any way I can be of service let me know :)
