Here is Swallowtail Jig! This was one of the first tunes I ever learned, and it means a lot to me! I've tried to make this video three times now, and each time I didn't like how it turned out. I think this version worked out the best out of all of my attempts, so I hope you like it!

Whenever I end up at a new Celtic jam session, and people want me to start playing something, I usually pick this tune! It seems like it's one that everyone knows, at least around where I live!

I've been so rushed with work and everything has been so crazy this past week. I hope things settle down a bit so I can relax~!

Thank you for watching! If you liked this video, please subscribe for more violin videos every Tuesday!
