  • “Whiskey in the Jar”: History and Transformation of a Classic Irish Song Masters Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment Of
    “Whiskey in the Jar”: History and Transformation of a Classic Irish Song Masters Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Dana DeVlieger, B.A., M.A. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2016 Thesis Committee: Graeme M. Boone, Advisor Johanna Devaney Anna Gawboy Copyright by Dana Lauren DeVlieger 2016 Abstract “Whiskey in the Jar” is a traditional Irish song that is performed by musicians from many different musical genres. However, because there are influential recordings of the song performed in different styles, from folk to punk to metal, one begins to wonder what the role of the song’s Irish heritage is and whether or not it retains a sense of Irish identity in different iterations. The current project examines a corpus of 398 recordings of “Whiskey in the Jar” by artists from all over the world. By analyzing acoustic markers of Irishness, for example an Irish accent, as well as markers of other musical traditions, this study aims explores the different ways that the song has been performed and discusses the possible presence of an “Irish feel” on recordings that do not sound overtly Irish. ii Dedication Dedicated to my grandfather, Edward Blake, for instilling in our family a love of Irish music and a pride in our heritage iii Acknowledgments I would like to thank my advisor, Graeme Boone, for showing great and enthusiasm for this project and for offering advice and support throughout the process. I would also like to thank Johanna Devaney and Anna Gawboy for their valuable insight and ideas for future directions and ways to improve.

  • Interview Mit John Sheahan 2002 (Hans-Jürgen Fink, Hamburger Abendblatt)
    Interview mit John Sheahan 2002 (Hans-Jürgen Fink, Hamburger Abendblatt) ? Was für eine Situation war das damals in Irland, als die Dubliners in den 60er- Jahren ihre Karriere starteten? Welche Bedeutung hatte das Singen und Musizieren, und welche Marktlücke haben Sie damals erobert? ! 1962 – das war eine völlig andere Welt, sie hat sich viel langsamer bewegt – heute ist alles so hektisch und verrückt. Die Leute hatten mehr Zeit, Zeit zum Nachdenken. Und die irische Musik, das war die Welt der älteren Generation. Sie war nicht schrecklich populär unter jüngeren Leuten und hat diese Generation erst langsam wieder erobert. Bei mir war das etwas anders, ich habe Tin Whistle gelernt und dann Flöte; ich bin ja wie Barney MacKenna in einer musikalischen Familie aufgewachsen. Die Art der „Dubliners“, mit der traditionellen irischen Musik umzugehen, war neu und erfrischend, sie brachte eine ganz andere Vitalität hinein. Nur ein Beispiel: Die älteren Musiker, das waren meist Dance Bands, sie haben alle gesessen. Wir standen auf der Bühne, wir haben gespielt und gesungen, und wir haben uns bewegt. Die Leute schienen das zu mögen, und so haben wir uns unsere ganz eigene Nische im Markt geschaffen. Wir haben die Leute magisch zur irischen Musik hingezogen, der wir neues Leben eingehaucht hatten. ? Sie sind jetzt vierzig Jahre im Musikgeschäft – das ist einzigartig. Wie würden Sie denn Ihr Erfolgsrezept beschreiben? ! Vermutlich ist es unser Erfolgsrezept, dass wir nie irgendeins gehabt haben. Wir haben ja noch nicht mal Verträge untereinander. Wir spielen einfach, wir haben musikalisch viel anzubieten, jeder bringt seine Soli ein. Und noch etwas ist ganz wichtig: Wir hängen nicht zwischen unseren Tourneen zusammen.
