Introducing the musicians...
Rhode to Dublin is a revolving cast of musicians.
Timmy May is the founder and manager of the band and also the creator of this website.
Rhode to Dublin always includes a variety of fine musicians and singers who play violin, uilleann pipes, whistle, accordeon, guitar, banjo, mandolin, and other instruments.
In the photos you can see different configurations of Rhode to Dublin.
The band is organized for different types of concerts and events and will customize a set list for any gathering.
There is a common element of Irish/Celtic music in the sound.

Here we are at King Park in Newport for the Waterfront Music Festival with Jamie Lawton on the violin along with Jack Wright and Timmy May.
We love to perform at farmer's markets from time to time in Newport and Middletown.
This is a vintage photo from 2009 at the Fastnet Pub in Newport. 2 of the musicians have passed away and we hope to see them someday on Fiddler's Green. They are Tom Maguire, and Fud Benson, the first 2 you see from left to right.
The rest of us are still here playing away, now 18 years strong on Sunday nights at the Fastnet Pub in Newport.
