Get together with like-minded lovers of folk music and singing! We meet twice a month to sing and play folk songs, most taken from the Rise Up Singing book. Members also bring lyrics to their favorite songs and hand out copies.

If you're familiar with folk music and are not shy about singing, or you play an acoustic instrument, come on down! Those who can sing harmonies or play fiddle, flute or harmonica are particularly welcome at this point.

Traditional Scottish jam session at The Royal Mile in Wheaton, Maryland near Washington, DC. We are, to my knowledge, the only public Scottish jam in the area.

Though the session is dominated by fiddlers, all appropriate instruments are welcome, within reason (Highland Bagpipes are just too loud, and in the wrong key for session play).

We try to stick to a Scottish repertoire, from all areas of Scotland and regions with closely-related styles (like Cape Breton and the Shetland Isles), though a few Irish tunes slip in. We mostly play reels and jigs, though we're trying to get more strathspeys and other tunes into the mix. The level of play at the session depends on who shows up. We often start as a slow session for the first 45 minutes or so, and become an advanced session for the remainder.
