Our great friend, the Irish musician David James, suffered a heart attack in November of 2006. It has left him with an enormous debt. The Friends of David James are holding a benefit for him on Sunday, September 9th at Gaelic Park. This will be a great way to thank David for all the tremendous work he has done for the Irish-American community.
David has been teaching and performing at the forefront of Irish music and culture for many years. He has won the All-Ireland on the Hammered Dulcimer three times and is considered by many to be the premier Irish Hammered Dulcimer player in the world. He has conducted numerous classes and seminars around the world and has been invited to most of the major festivals as a performer as well as an historian. David is a fantastic guy, a committed teacher and a great friend, and has been a unsung hero on the front lines of Irish music for many, many years. It's time for us to support David, a local treasure. Please help us spread the word about this event and please come!!
Thank You,
the Friends of David James
