	4\, 2009McGonigel's Mucky Duck presents Clandestine. Clandestine is a 
	Celtic music group from Houston. Featuring bagpipes\, guitar\, fiddle\
	, and drums (bodhrán and conga drums)\, they play traditional Celtic m
	usic (both instrumental and vocal) as well as some modern tunes (inclu
	ding some originals) in a Celtic style.  Some songs include additional
	 instruments like the flute\, bombarde and various whistles. They form
	ed in 1991\, stabilized as a quartet in 1996\, and dissolved for a tim
	e in 2003. In their original incarnation\, the band made 4 discs and t
	oured heavily around the US and also performed in Europe.  The band re
	formed with a change in membership in late 2006. The original Clandest
	ine was a pipe-and-drum quartet in Houston. Original member bagpiper E
	.J. Jones moved to Pittsburgh\, met guitarist and singer Jen Hamel in 
	Pittsburgh\, and convinced her to return to Houston to perform as part
	 of Clandestine.  In 1995\, fiddle player Gregory McQueen joined. The 
	first disc (The Ale is Dear) featured this trio. In 1996 percussionist
	 and singer Emily Dugas joined\, and the remaining 3 discs include all
	 4 members. Jen Hamel and Emily Dugas both sang. In February 2003 the 
	band performed their last show in that original incarnation. In 2005\,
	 E.J.\, Emily and Gregory began playing with various other artists as 
	the Emily Dugas Band.  In 2006\, with Jen's blessing\, they officially
	 reformed Clandestine with themselves and a fourth member\, Al Cofrin\
	, on Irish cittern\, folk guitar\, and medieval bagpipes.  The band ma
	de their formal debut as Clandestine at the Mucky Duck Pub in Houston 
	on St. Andrew's Day\, November 30\, 2006.\n
