Established husband and wife duet Pat Egan (guitar, vocals) and Laura Byrne Egan (flute, whistle and vocals) perform often with young Baltimore fiddle wizard Jim Eagan. These three have been making mighty music together for many years!   
    Laura and Jim have anchored a popular weekly tune session at Baltimore’s hallowed home of Irish music and dance, J. Patrick’s Pub, for almost 10 years. In April they won 1st prize in the duets category at the east coast Fleadh (traditional Irish music competitions) in New York.
   Jim also performs and records with O’Malley’s March, and has released a stunning solo CD – “At Reavy’s House” – featuring tunes written by the revered Philadelphia-based fiddler/composer, County Cavan man Ed Reavy (1897-1988). This show will be a tribute to Ed, showcasing some of the trio’s favorite Reavy tunes, with maybe a few surprises thrown in.
   Laura’s fine flute CD “Tune for the Road” came out in 2005.  She founded and directs The Baltimore Irish Arts Center and teaches traditional Irish wooden flute at Goucher College.
   Pat grew up singing and playing (in County Tipperary) and has been a professional musician since 1985. He tours internationally with the Irish band Chulrua, along with Paddy O’Brien (button accordion) and Patrick Ourceau (fiddle). Pat is admired for his smooth, lyrical vocals, his honest delivery and his repertoire of storied songs.

Upcoming and Ongoing Philadelphia Ceili Group Events

What's going on with the Ceili Group - Lots!

Friday, October 9

Sponsored by the Philadelphia Ceili Group- Irish Traditional Music Sessions. From 8:00 -9:00 there is a slow session. This is a traditional Irish session in all ways except one: the tempo. We will play common session tunes at a slower than normal pace, so that beginning and intermediate players can more easily learn the tunes and join in the session. Also great for experienced players who are picking up another instrument!

A regular session sponsored by the Irish Center will run after that from 9:00 - On.

For more information contact Kirsten Erwin at swampkat@martnet.com or 610-517-1462.
