Ink 19 :: Masters of the Irish Guitar
Masters of the Irish Guitar (Shanachie). Review by Dave Aftandilian.
MASTERS OF THE IRISH GUITAR VARIOUS ARTISTS Shanachie When most fans think of the key instruments in Irish traditional music, the top picks would probably be fiddle or flute, perhaps accordion or uilleann pipes -- but likely not guitar. This fine album aims to change that opinion, presenting sixteen ...
Ink 19 :: Far From the Shamrock Shore
Prominent folklorist Mick Moloney explores the Irish-American musical tradition in both words and music with Far From the Shamrock Shore. Dave Aftandilian reviews the book and CD.
...Harte has said that, "Those in power write the history while those who suffer write the songs." That has certainly been true for generations of Irish men and women, both in their own country and here in their adopted homeland of "Amerikay." In these two projects with the same title, a book and CD set...

CLANN ZU BLACK COATS & BANDAGES G7 Welcoming Committee One of my favorite themes from James Joyce’s A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man is Irish national identity. When the protagonist Stephen Dedalus reaches adolescence he begins to actively question the hegemonic structures in place in Ireland ...

...MOLLY WITHIN A MILE OF HOME SideOneDummy It’s almost impossible to describe Flogging Molly, short of saying that they sound like Rancid playing Irish folk songs. They’re tougher than The Pogues, and not quite as tough as Dropkick Murphys. That being said, I had images of pirates and leprechauns bouncing...

...," and it sounds like crap. Grrr. This is not fair to them, and it's not fair to the new listener. These guys are more clean-cut than your typical Irish revival band, a bit less challenging than, say, Chieftains or U2, but not bad in a good time, noisy evening way. Plus, they KEEP DOING this for the...

...to lay his agendas bare, each of the twelve tracks harbors such familiar Morrissey-ian themes as nationalism (on the amplified, instantly catchy "Irish Blood, English Heart"), fame ("The World is Full of Crashing Bores") and most important, love (sung in numerous permutations here.) Perennially veiled...
Ink 19 :: The Chieftains
Down the Old Plank Road: The Nashville Sessions (RCA / BMG). Review by Carl F. Gauze.
...OLD PLANK ROAD:: THE NASHVILLE SESSIONS RCA / BMG After 40 years of making Celtic music, The Chieftains are inexorably tied to the tin whistle and Irish drum sound. That's about one half of the ethnic roots to Appalachian blue grass and the "country" half of country & western music. As time progressed...

...songwriter, Keith Roberts, originally hails from none other than Dublin, Ireland. Keith began his American music career in LA, playing traditional Irish folk songs.

Ink 19 :: 2 Cents
Just how do you get to a VANS Warped Tour stage if you're an unsigned band? Gail Worley talks with 2 Cents' drummer/vocalist Adam O'Rourke to find out.
HIS 2 CENTS AN INTERVIEW WITH ADAM O'ROURKE OF 2 CENTS (OR "HOW OUR BAND GOT ASKED TO JOIN THE WARPED TOUR WITHOUT REALLY TRYING") by Gail Worley "Are there any Silver Bullets left in the Cooler?"
