Club history:
Bards in An Tir have been attempting to organize since its inception. Various guilds have risen and fallen over the years. With the advent and popularity of facebook the bards of An Tir came together as a more cohesive and on going collection of bards. Master Fearain with the support of house dal gCaise started hosting regular fires and encampments under the name. Soon more and more bards came together and now it is a thriving community of divers individuals and collection of talents.
Notable founding members:
