Mark Arrington Music: Home
Welcome to my site! You can hear clips of me playing with my bands, on others' recording projects, feis music (Irish step dance competitions), and solo recordings in multiple styles.
The calendar shows where I'm playing as a feis musician, with my bands, or with other groups. Give me a call for bookings or for your recording poject.
I also teach fiddle, guitar, banjo, and mandolin, and sell instruments, instruction books, and accessories.
I hope you enjoy browsing around the site. Leave your email in the field below so we can stay in touch!

Oireachtas Special!!!! - October 1, 2008
To promote the less common set dances, I'm giving away some tunes for Oireachtas practice through October! The free sets are Rambling Rake, Four Masters, Rub the Bag, Deep Green Pool, Rodney's Glory, Roving Peddler, Jockey at the Fair, Youghal Harbor, Hurling Boys, White Blanket, and The Three Tunes. Don't order from the site because PayPal will charge me a fee. Send me an email of the tune and speed you want and I'll email it to you as usual.
Set Dances for $1 on iTunes - September 2, 2008
I'm getting lots of orders from around the world for individual set dances. On the "Order Music and Stuff" page, check the speed on the CD, which is the number right after the tune name. If it's the speed you want, you can order it from iTunes for 99 cents. If you need a different speed, you can order it from this site with a credit card or PayPal account .
