 Líadan
September 2006 release of girl band,Líadan's,first album.
I first saw them doing support for Gerry "Banjo" O' Connor at Peppers in Feakle and marvelled at their unique,fresh,vibrant sound.
Their music is captivating and their singing absolutely spell-binding.Early talk of a 2007 world tour with a major Irish trad band - if you get a chance,make sure to see them.

Mike's daughter,Mary,rang the shop to tell us of her father's December 2004 release
