This is a group for amateur celtic folk musicians who'd like to meet up once a week to practice some tunes together. All instruments and levels are welcome, since we are a group of learning musicians. Tunes are practiced at a slow pace and you're welcome to bring sheet music, as well as encouraged to learn by ear. A list of regular tunes is available, though we're open to learning new tunes from you as well. Look forward to sharing tunes with everybody!

This group is about the joy of music, especially when you are making it and even more especially when you are making it with others.

With roots buried deeply in Appalachia and influences spanning much of Europe and Africa, bluegrass music is more than a musical genre.

Today, many of the most talented Bluegrass musicians and passionate admirers play and live throughout Brooklyn, New York. This Meetup is to serve as a public forum for sharing and planning events related to bluegrass musi …
