Knotty Pine String Band: this week, this month, and next year

Thanks to Declan O'Kane for more news of the Knotty Pine String Band on Facebook:

On the site we have some photos of a recent concert we did with a fabulous Cajun band, L’Angelus, a family band from Lafayette at the Ulster American Folk Park on 4 July, also photos from our tour of the west coast USA last year and loads of other interesting stuff in Derry and further afield.

We are appearing at the Market Place Theatre, Armagh, on Friday 24 Sept., 8.00 p.m. This is a bookable event, so contact the theatre for tickets.

We also have a residency in Sally O’Brien's, John St., Omagh, every Thursday night at 10.00 p.m. and welcome all players to come along for two hours of music, admission free.

We are recording over the winter and are planning another trip to the USA in Sept. 2011. If there is anyone out there who has any links to venues on the west coast, give me a call on 07770 507981, or e-mail me.

BIB editor's note: the KPs' Facebook page also carries photos of the Gibson Brothers, sitting in on the Sally O'Brien's session last Thursday.
