What other Irish bands/singers do you guys like besides the Pogues???
Although a very different kind of Irish music from the Pogues, I myself have been enjoying Ronan Tynan a lot lately...His style is well rooted in Irish tradition and he is an incredible singer. Check out samples from his new CD at ronantynan.net if you haven't heard him.

So what other Irish Artists do you listen to?

Also fancy; bothy band, danu, dubliners, cheiftans, woods band and christy moore's solo stuff etc.. yes

And I don't know of Ronan Tynan.

Dubliners, Clancy Brothers, Wolfe Tones, Noel McLoughlin, Fureys, Sweeney’s Men, Woods Band, Oysterband, Chieftains (unless they let some saccharine pop-star take over the mic).

most of the above mentioned and also Sinead O'Connor

I forgot Blood Or Whiskey.

The first couple of Christy Moore records are great - Prosperous has "Spancil Hill" which Christy did with Shane at one point....I think it may be available on Kufen's ftp site for download :wink:

Great band, brilliant live act... but they're not Irish. (Though come to think of it maybe one of them has distant Irish ancestry...)
See http://www.oysterband.co.uk/ for background, biography etc.

Okay. So I replace my choice with Planxty.

**Tue Feb 15, 2005 5:34 pm**

Good choice, Zuzana! I'd add to the list Sharon Shannon, for now, I'll probably think of others later.
