Modern, high-energy Celtic music. Based in traditional roots but given a rock makeover. A big sound with a nicely urban feel. Lots of guitars, plus vocals and more traditional instruments such as bodhran, flute, whistle, fiddle. Talented bunch. A bit “local bar rough” but that adds to the appeal. The songs are all in the “telling a story” tradition of Ireland. Lots of tragedy and memories. *1. Upbeat toe-tapper, fun and lively. 2. Rock jam w/lots of energy. *3. Slow opening into fast jam w/a thread of the traditional. *4. Mid/upbeat story song w/cool vocals. 5. Midtempo love gone wrong ballad. 6. Mid/upbeat rock jig w/a cool sound. *7. Fast head nodder w/fun vocals & a catchy, fun sound. 8. Upbeat and rockin, w/some midtempo bits. 9. Mid/upbeat and lyricals. *10. Fast & hard edged. 11. Mid/up whaling/shipwreck song. 12. Upbeat rock w/an edge. *13. Mostly upbeat country Celtic. | ||
