Champaign-Urbana's longest-running weekly Irish traditional music session is now located at The Blind Pig on Wednesday evenings from 8:00pm to 10:30pm.
Sessions focus on the traditional dance music of Ireland--jigs,reels, hornpipes, waltzes and much more--played on authentic Irish instruments including fiddle, button accordion, concertina, piano, pipes and tenor banjo. Throughout the evening occasional songs may be sung. Musicians with some experience in playing Irish music are welcome, and those with an interest in learning to play Irish music are encouraged to come and listen.
