John Barleycorn - Muziek

Not A Rock And Roll Band Influenced By Celtic Music But A Traditional Band Influenced By Electricity! It Began In 1999 As Three Friends Gathered For Sessions. Casey Jones George Zienowicz And Andy Redmond Recognized That Songs Known By Irish And Scottish Soldiers And The Celtic Music That Evolved In America Were Rich Repositories That Could Use A Little Exploring. With The Addition Of Two More Friends Bud Osthaus And Glenn Owens And Since All Members Were A Bit Older Than Their “garage Band” Days The Name Na’Bodach Gaelic For “not Old Men” Seemed Appropriate.
Research Into The Various Melodies And Lyrics That Accompany These Tunes And The Historical Integrity Employed In Documentation Displays The Respect For The Traditions And Culture That Na’Bodach Share With Their Audience. However…
The Use Of Electric Guitar Electric Bagpipes Electric Fiddle Electro-Acoustic Guitar And A Pumped Up Bodhran Juxtaposed With A Strong Four Man Vocal Range Are Insuring That A Person At A Na’Bodach Gig Are Treated To An Experience In Celtic Music They Won’t Soon Forget. Larry Kirwan Of Black47 Fame Has Been Moved To Call Na’Bodach “sledgehammer Celtic” And “one Of The Best Of The New Bands.” Their Critically Acclaimed Debut CD “Knickers Down Bottoms Up” Continues To Sell Well Throughout North America Europe And Japan As Is Their Most Recent Release “An Intelagent Design” Both Albums Have Been Recognized By “Just Plain Folks” An Independent Music Organization As Nominees For “Best Celtic Album 2004/2006”
They Are True To Tradition And Culture Yet They Always Throw In A Few Drams Of High Octane So We Can All Enjoy The Eclectic Musical Mix That Is Na’Bodach! See Also Andy Redmond On Last FM read less
