I would have no trouble at all dancing to that jig - very nice tune! You may want to try playing it with a more defined 4 potato intro to get everyone oriented on the first downbeat. Their intro is a little soft, which could make the top of the tune "slide over" a beat for some people.

Hello fellow musicians!

I've had the following two tunes suggested for our contra band. The reel at the end seems straight forward (with some doubling up) but the jig seems to have really weird phrasing (especially in the A) that would make it hard for dancers to follow.

I'm curious what you guys think!
