MICHEAL HEALY & STEVE COONEY - PLECKIN' ABOUT
Nineteen year old Micheal from Castlebar, Co Mayo, has produced a fantastic tenor banjo album which is perfectly backed by that magician, Steve Cooney, on guitar. The album showcases Micheal's talents as a composer, having penned many of the tracks himself, and he also plays mandolin on some tunes. His siblings, Sinead, Darragh and Grainne add piano, harp, accordion and bodhran.
DANNY & AKI - MUSIC FROM THE IRISH, AMERICAN & NORDIC TRADITIONS
Danny’s open-tuned fiddle and Aki’s modified button accordion together create a unique drone-rich, sparsely ornamented style that brings out the elegant simplicity and timeless beauty of these traditional melodies. The sound is firmly rooted in the tradition, yet their interpretations make the music distinctively their own.
DIARMAID & DONNCHA MOYNIHAN - THE LIGHTS OF RANZANICO
A collection of beautiful tunes fused with Irish and European melodies, by one of the foremost Uilleann pipers on the Irish music scene.
BRIAN FINNEGAN - THE RAVISHING GENIUS OF BONES
Fantastic CD from ex-Flook frontman with a star studded array of supporting musicians. Whistle and flute playing at it’s finest.
BRENDAN MULHOLLAND, BRENDAN HENDRY & PAUL MCSHERRY - TUNED UP
Traditional Irish fiddle, flute and guitar from some of the best musicians on the scene - a real winner!
