Here's Tim Edey on Youtube playing some incredible Irish accordion on a D/G....Wow!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PXGV-zJ_ ... re=related

When I first came accross some of his youtube videos I watched his fingers dance accross the fingerboard and I thought "he must be a B/C player. But waite, he's mostly playing on the outside row"

It seems a little uconventional. Different from the usual B/C, C#D type of playing. Straight row D combined with some conjucto, cajun, european style fingering.

Really cool. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!!

D/G box rulez you can play increadible bass backing on it

Padre,

Good to have you on the board!

There are some great Mp3's and vids on your bands website.

Which one are you in the band?

I couldn't figure out your country of origin on the website and I don't want to guess and be wrong!

Cheers!

Nate

band is from Poland
I'm hairy beast that plays bodhran there
but some time ago I've moved out to Ireland
you know, to learn to play some real instruments
at very source of the ITM
Glad you like the music
perhaps even one day there will be a english version of a website

There is another D/G player,an amateur I assume, that I really like as well that plays ITM on a D/G box on youtube that goes under cathycook1. She plays reels,jigs and hornpipes, basses and all, and has a great driving style.
