First Date

Slip jig · 9/8 · D major

First Date is a modern slip jig composed in D major by Shannon Heaton. Written in 9/8 meter, it features the characteristic flowing rhythm and lively character typical of the slip jig form. Because it is a contemporary composition, it lacks the older historical associations of traditional Irish repertoire and is instead recognized as a popular tune within the modern session scene.
