Every generation has a few acts that define where a musical genre is going, performers so confident in their chosen field that they are able to completely embrace the genre and yet introduce something new to it. In Irish folk music today, that act is the Makem and Spain Brothers.
Pete Seeger (The Makem Brothers with Mickey and Liam Spain) show people of many different backgrounds that old songs dont have to die, if a small group of men or women love them and make sure to get together once in a while to sing them.
Roger McGuinn This is a great new CD. Its warm, joyful, and full of life. It makes me smile when I listen to it!
WBET Radio This album is nothing less than OUTSTANDING. This is the best album I have received in a long time. I love the great selection of songs and the fantastic arrangements. What a sound! Great job!
