The Gables is home to the Trad Session for over 30 years.
The session has been visited by travelling musicians from far and
wide with many diverse cultures. They have been tutored in all
forms of music, classical, jazz, folk and blues but in some way all
are drawn to the allure of traditional Irish music. They are drawn
to the allure of the session. The way in which a group of musicians
gather, some having met only for the first time, pick a set of random tunes and yet all know exactly when to start, change and stop, all in perfect unison. Yes the phenomena of the musical gathering that is˜the session"
