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 can 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"
