Jack Rowes reel

I am a singer-songwriter from Cork. I am a Music student in U.C.C. I play guitar, piano, the bongo drums and the ukulele as well as the singing!! Follow me on Twitter, like me on Facebook, subscribe to me on YouTube and follow me on Sound Cloud!! Enjoy :)

Traditional Irish, contemporary/ambient folk fiddle player, composer and producer.
I feature on all my reposted tracks.

Emigrant Celt surviving the neo-liberal nightmare by trying to re-imagine Irish trad / folk via Kraftwerk and all they subsequently inspired.

My name is Preston Wilde and I am an uilleann pipes and fiddle attempter based in Portland, Oregon.  I am available for hire as a performer, teacher, and reed maker.  Also please contact me if you would like to chat about pipes, Irish music, or have a request for me.

Cheers!

Having played a bunch of pretty different instruments but mainly the piano for some decades, I luckily  took up the English Concertina in the summer of 2011 out of instant inspiration and can't get my hands off of this great little box (which is such a fine solo instrument as well as allowing some modest self-accompaniment when singing songs). Find more content at concertina.net.

Update: After a  hiatus due to technical failure of the beautiful instrument shown on top of my page I resumed my playing in October 2017 following the acquisition of my "new" Wheatstone model 24 (while the Lachenal Excelsior is awaiting some future restauration)

Update II: Having finished my denying the need of a Tenor-Treble to myself, I now own and am playing a beautifully (looking and) sounding metal-ended Aeola as well, which happens to be my main instrument - however the ET is still not being neglected...

Update III: Happily added the 20b Anglo (Lachenal and Crabb) and Crane Duet (again Crabb) to "my" instruments as of October/November 2018 :)
