A site to support my amateur recording hobby.

Following the end of the Left, Right & Centre residency at Frank Ryans Bar, I needed somewhere to put recordings that are not recorded there.

It is based on a free WordPress theme with customisations to support newer features like post thumbnails.

Left, Right & Centre play Frank Ryans BarEvery Thursday in Frank Ryan’s Bar of Queen Street, 5 Queen Street, Smithfield, Tadhg hosts a cracking blues band with some of Ireland’s best known session musicians – Noel Bridgeman, Ed Deane, Trevor Knight and John Quearney.

We did the website originally, but lately we have been recording the gigs using a rather nifty Zoom H1 recorder. With the permission of the musicians, the live recordings are available for free (under a Creative Commons license – free for any non-commercial use) in a new download area on the Frank Ryan’s web site.

Sometimes it just doesn’t feel like work – this was a real pleasure!
