Deryn Rae 

Luck of the Irish

 

Deryn began playing Irish music in 2006, after a trip to a music festival in Ennis, Ireland. The World Music program at Florida State offered her Intro to Irish Music, and she was forever hooked. Her love for the music grew, and soon, she was stepdancing with the Tallahassee Irish Stepdancers and Nashville Irish Stepdancers.

 

During her time in Tallahassee, Deryn played with a number of Irish bands, including the Bothy Gals, Tanager, the Ned Devines, Finnegan’s Cake, Fair Play, and Fippletipper.
