Welcome to the Kansas City Irish Traditional Music Seisiúns group.
Based in Kansas City, Missouri, this group is for those who play Irish Traditional Music, and those who love to listen to Irish Traditional Music (ITM). There are a number of Irish/Celtic sessions in the Kansas City area. We have a session every Saturday afternoon: on the seconf and forth Saturday of the month at The Gaf from 3 to 6pm, and the first and third Saturday of the month at Mike Kelly's Westsider from 3 to 6pm.
The focus of our session is Irish traditional music (which includes traditional music from Ireland, Scotland, Wales, Brittany, Galicia, and music of the Irish diaspora in Canada: Cape Breton, Newfoundland, etc.). Traditional songs are welcome at these sessions (Sean Nós and accompanied).
Typical instruments at a session include fiddle, flute, tin whistle, accordion, mandolin, mando-bass, Irish bouzouki, cittern, bodhrán, bones, and guitar. Any of the following are welcome additional instruments: uilleann pipes, Scottish small pipes, anglo concertina, and tenor banjo.
We have from eight to fifteen players (depending on the week, and time of year). It is always a very friendly group of musicians.
If you are a seasoned ITM player yourself and looking for a great session, come play some tumes with us!
If you are new to Irish Traditional Music (ITM), and interested in playing, then check out our list of tunes in the group's file folder. If you decide to attend a session, please take a look at the information and etiquette sheet in the group's file folder.
Whether you play Irish Traditional Music or just like to listen, we hope to see you there!
