Looking for Celtic Instrumentalist to Help Shape EP

I'm looking for an instrumentalist who might be interested in helping me explore arrangement ideas during the demo stage of my upcoming EP. At the moment, most of the songs exist as simple MIDI chord progressions and vocal recordings, and I'd love to experiment with additional Celtic-inspired textures and melodies before entering the studio.

While I'm open to any instrument that could complement the music, I'm particularly interested in hearing ideas invol ... ving fiddle, harp, tin whistle, Irish bouzouki, uilleann pipes, or Scottish bagpipes.

My goal is less about creating polished, studio-ready recordings and more about discovering a creative direction that can help shape the arrangements, instrumentation, and overall sonic landscape of the project. Demo-quality recordings, rough sketches, voice memos, or simple melodic ideas are perfectly fine.

The project consists of 7 songs and sits somewhere between singer-songwriter, folk, and Celtic-inspired music. Ideally I'd love to explore arrangement concepts across the entire collection. However, I completely understand if that falls outside the scope of your typical rates or workflow, and I'd be happy to focus on a smaller selection of songs that best fits the budget.

If the project sounds like a good fit, I'd love to hear about your experience, creative process, availability, and rates.

Let me know if you'd like to hear one of the demos!
