n Ireland, there is the long–standing tradition of the Session, an informal gathering of musicians making music together wherever they happen to be.  It’s not so much a performance but rather a shared experience where everyone plays or sings along.

As our lives are spent more and more on two continents, we have loved sharing the traditions of our native and discovering those of our adopted home.  The blending of old and new world sounds, of music handed down and music recreated in new spaces, of traditional Irish flavour and American bluegrass colour has inspired our song–writing, arranging, and performing.  It has helped support and define our goal of writing new congregational songs for the local church while continuing to enjoy the older ones passed onto us – hymns old and new that ultimately lead us from what is passing away to a deeper understanding of the gospel that awakens us to new life in Christ.
