Circled By Hounds

[Sam's Cross]

While possibly having little to do with The Pogues other than some shared standards, a love of The Pogues, and an understanding that irish music is fun, might I take the chance to point people in the direction of a little band from Portland, Oregon known as Circled by Hounds. Portland (the home of Kevin Burke and KMRIA) was recently my home and in a fit of Jameson's induced nostalgia I came across Circled by Hounds on the interwebs. I think not only are they a marvelous band, but also marvelous people. Have a look at some of their weaker work on their myspace (they aren't idiots) http://www.myspace.com/circledbyhounds

This is entirely unsolicited, I doubt they would remember who I am.
