Here's a nice photo of Fiona as she tries out a new bodhran that was custom-made by Del's Drums. This company designs drums and other musical instruments. More photos of this session at my Cottars Forum.

The Cottars have rejoined The Chiefains' tour of the USA, taking them up and down the eastern seaboard. One of the tour's highlights is a Saint Patrick's Day concert at Carnegie Hall, NYC.
Also many new concerts are scheduled for April. The first half of the month will see The Cottars throughout Ontario, and will end April with several appearances in Louisiana.

Hi Joe, Thanks for the update. It's good to know the Cottars are getting the exposure they deserve. Unfortunately, I couldn't see London, UK on the schedule thread. Maybe I need to get my eyes tested! Roger
