"Street Angel, House Devil". That's the saying that The House Devils appear to have acquired their great name from, in a long ago reference to Matt Fahey's father from an astute neighbour. Great name for a band that comprises Matt Fahy on guitar, Tradconnect member…

I just wanted to let everyone know that I have a Celtic music radio show here in the States.

Yes, The Chieftains, Dubliners and Battlefield band are all wonderful, and certainly have their place on my show, but I enjoy…

Just landed in Brighton, Boston and would love to meet a few musicians especially someone who would accompany me with my songs, Sean Nós, Ballads and Country/Blues. Met the Gannon Boys, within minutes of hitting Logan Runway, from Conemara, father an son and was very impressed. Great musicians ands nice men. I was totally jet lagged though so forgot to get any numbers.
Anyone with any ideas?

You can hear 4 tracks off their new album The Blue-eyed Rascal through their official website. They play with ease and…
