Bio

We are enthusiastic about playing and singing Irish music, along with a few other types. We do other Celtic music, particularly Scottish tunes,

The Almost Irish Band features Tim Chadwick (guitar, banjo, vocals), Gary Chilton (hammered dulcimer, vocals,penny whistle), and Roger Stamper (fiddle, guitar). The shows are filled with exciting fiddle tunes, the unique and haunting sound of the hammered dulcimer, solid rhythm from the guitar or banjo, and delightful vocal numbers.

We are seriously trying to get more gigs in the music area. We play many genres, but we think that just our name The Almost Irish Band seems to limit us to the Celtic scene. Any ideas or comments would be greatly appreciated. More to follow
