Jigs and Reels: what's the difference?

PictureOl'Brother Paul
So Last week, I was working with Ol'Brother Paul on the 'Paulcast' 2nd season. We're switching up the format, which will follow the progression of a song through the recording process, while talking about tips/strategies for how to record a song with less frustration.

We've picked an old idea Paul had for an Irish Jig back in 2016-2017 using tenor banjo (or in this case a banjo with the drone string removed.)
Until this point we've been kind of using the term 'Jig' and 'Reel' interchangably, but this got me thinking what's the difference? They are two separate words, so they probably mean two different things. okay google what's the difference between a jig and a reel?

So 'reel' short answer... The main difference is in the timing. Jigs being in a 6/8 time and a Reel being in a 4/4 time.  So to answer my own question, the song we are going to produce is actually an Irish Reel.

Hey everyone, Thanks for clicking over to the page to check out the blog and the 'Paulcast'.  We're still going strong and i want to show some gratitude to everyone (especially Paul) for all the support and patience as we get things rolling with the projects at Gene Media. what we need right now is some support. If you see an article or video you like click the share button to tell your friends. It's a great way to support the projects, and its free!

 Episode 27 of the 'Paulcast'. I have a feeling that the next few episodes are going to get really deep into the challenges facing musicians and bands in a small town Today we have a short story about why a band is a little bit like Rhubarb Pie
