Clareen

Tom Cussen played tenor banjo in one of Irelands leading traditional ceilí band Shaken. With over 40 years experience Tom looked after his own banjo repairs and wanted to manufacture Irish Handcrafted Banjos, so he opened Clareen Banjos in the early 80s. It was and is still based in Clarinbridge, Co. Galway. Tom’s passion for the banjo and his electro mechanical background has helped him to develop a range of banjos that uniquely compliment every level of playing skill.
