What a unique opportunity this turned out to be.  While these guys are not really ongoing band, each is so accomplished that they can pull together for a night and sound like they’ve been recording and touring for years.

The romped through a great selection of jigs, reels, and special selections – providing a secret, fleeting peek at a trad supergroup.

What a night at Johnny D's
