The Feargall Family

Hi, we're the Feargall Family!!

About Me



Late 2001 saw the release of The Feargall Family Featuring Reverend Roq & JC, a self-produced collection on which the duo limited themselves to using only one eight-track recorder. The Rev & JC sang their hearts out, and each played instruments they weren't exactly comfortable on. It was a bizarre blend of styles, including rock, soul, funk, folk, cajun, pop and some real weirdo stuff... and many of the songs ended in an overblown, glorious trainwreck. A number of excellent guest appearances (The Feargall Extended-Family) graced the first album, including those by Brad Newell (Theremin, electric wah-wah violin), Tommy Greene (sitar), Dave Wright (trombone), Scott Drewery (sax), as well as Connie & Jo, handclap-soldiers to the stars and beyond.

Anyway, we've had blast doing this stuff & we hope you enjoy our MySpace. And let us know what you think.
