*NEW!* Sunday Sessions at the League with Detroit Irish Radio
Another opportunity to make music with friends - starting Sunday 10/2 - and to be a part of the Detroit Irish Radio show hosted by Kathleen O'Neill!
Kathleen O'Neill broadcasts the radio show from the Gaelic League, and is hoping for a couple of people to talk about DIMA/CCE and play some tunes on the radio each week. After the radio interactions (the show ends at 3pm), the session is welcome to continue until 5pm.
Folks can arrive around 2pm or so and play music from then until about 5pm. The idea is to make this a weekly or bi-weekly event at the League. No need to pre-register- simply show up for the session from 2pm!
