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.
