"When I first heard the band, I was immediately impressed by their obvious love of the music, the energy of their live performances, and their excellent musicianship. They bring to the music a vitality and joyous creativity that excite even the hardest of hearts." --John Doyle, founding member of Irish supergroup Solas
Molly's Revenge is pleased to announce that award-winning vocalist and accordionist Moira Smiley will be joining the band for select tours in 2008. Known nationally for her groundbreaking work with contemporary vocal group VOCO, Moira has proven her traditional skills by winning the Western USA Division of the All-Ireland Singing Championship.
Molly's Revenge has performed at many of the top folk festivals and performing arts events in the USA, and prestigious events in Australia and China. Their arrangements of traditional Celtic jigs and reels bring these dance tunes up to date with a driving, hard-edged accent that always leaves audiences shouting for more.
Their seventh full-length recording was produced by John Doyle, a founding member of Irish supergroup Solas. Guest performers on the new record include percussionist Fraser Stone (Old BLind Dogs) and Moira Smiley. Release is set for early 2008.
