This Wednesday, Nov. 27, 9--11:30 p.m., at Folk Night at The Ship Pub in
St. John’s, Newfoundland, there is a traditional jam session hosted by concertina and button accordion player Fergus Brown-O’Byrne. The
kitchen is open until 8 p.m. (but may take the last order at 7:45 p.m.).
Cover is by donation, with a suggested donation of $5, and it
is free for performers.

Here is the blurb from the Facebook event page, which is https://www.facebook.com/events/377833653153829/

“Fergus the Younger will be hosting the session this week!”

(Fergus Brown-O’Byrne is the son of Fergus O’Byrne of Ryan’s Fancy fame and usually plays concertina and button accordion at the session though I
think he can also play fiddle, but there are often many fiddlers at these traditional Newfoundland and Irish round table unamplified jam sessions, usually held on the last Wednesday of the month.)

Dec. 4: Cathy and Kirk Newhook
