Keltikon, with its energetic Celtic Rock & Folk Punk, has quickly become one of the most active “Irish“ rock bands in Switzerland. Original songs as well as traditional Irish and Scottish jigs, reels and ballads, are combined with heavy rock and folk punk to create a unique sound. 2018 and 2019 Keltikon was main act at Switzerland’s biggest Irish Festival, shared once again the stage with international acts and has just finished recording a new album, to be released in spring 2020. On their first tour of Ireland playing in Kilkenny and Donegal, the band was welcomed with open arms and overwhelmed with positive feedback. As a result of further interest from a number of event organizers the second tour in July/August 2020 is being planned. Skilled musicians with decades of experience, not only of Scottish and Irish traditional music, weave Rock, Ska, Neo-Folk and Baltic elements together to create an individual, dynamic rock concept. Experience shows that Keltikon’s original songs don’t have to play second fiddle to the old traditionals or covers when they’re playing live - sometimes somber and melancholic, but mostly full of exuberant energy and just a bit of barefaced cheek. Folky, rock stomping, fast as lightning and with a handful of ballads thrown in, the band plays tribute to old bards as well as Flogging Molly or the Pogues. The repertoire is rounded off with some well-loved songs, of course, so let’s get the party started, Sláinte! Line Up: Olaf Ohl - Guitar, Vox Mélodie Pican - Fiddle, Backvox Dave Etter - Bass, Backvox Chris Wettstein - Drums Booking Contact Ireland: John O Donnell Cotter [email protected] [email protected] www.keltikon.com.

“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.

Many thanks to you all. My friend Stephen Creswell’s amazing record collection has been readily available to me and has proved an invaluable resource. A hearty thanks!

September 2003
Folk Forum Newsletter September, 2003 Hello Friends, When I started writing this, it was September 11, 2003. I was afraid to turn on the radio. All week long we have seen extra police and sheriff cars on the cruise looking for “suspicious” activities. There were a dozen or so with flashing lights setting up check points and blockades at Koch refinery in Rosemont two days ago as I drove past with a load of veggies bound for food co-ops in the Twin Cities. I always feel guilty as I drive past holding my breath, rolling the windows up tight to avoid breathing the foul air. I am, on delivery days, part of that endless stream of air conditioned machines racing on massive concrete highways into and out of the city. As a people who claim to love the natural world and desire peace, we should not be living like this. We should not be doing this to our planet. I have driven for miles past parched fields. I know some of our produce will go to feed some of what Thorstein Veblen called the “Leisure class” practicing their art of “conspicuous consumption.” But I take comfort in knowing much of it will go to people working toward change, for a peaceful world, and for sustainable lifestyles. If, instead of guarding the oil supply, our extra homeland security police were riding bikes to jobs researching fuel cell vehicles, renewable energy applications for meeting domestic needs, or teaching in the overcrowded schools helping kids learn skills and values for living in a more ideal world…things would be different.

Folk Music 1 Folk Music
Folk music 1 Folk music Folk music Béla Bartók recording Slovak peasant singers in 1908 Traditions List of folk music traditions Musicians List of folk musicians Instruments Folk instruments Folk music is an English term encompassing both traditional folk music and contemporary folk music. The term originated in the 19th century. Traditional folk music has been defined in several ways: as music transmitted by mouth, as music of the lower classes, and as music with unknown composers. It has been contrasted with commercial and classical styles. This music is also referred to as traditional music and, in US, as "roots music". Starting in the mid-20th century a new form of popular folk music evolved from traditional folk music. This process and period is called the (second) folk revival and reached a zenith in the 1960s. The most common name for this new form of music is also "folk music", but is often called "contemporary folk music" or "folk revival music" to make the distinction.[1] This type of folk music also includes fusion genres such as folk rock, electric folk, and others. While contemporary folk music is a genre generally distinct from traditional folk music, it often shares the same English name, performers and venues as traditional folk music; even individual songs may be a blend of the two. Traditional folk music Definitions A consistent definition of traditional folk music is elusive. The terms folk music, folk song, and folk dance are comparatively recent expressions. They are extensions of the term folk lore, which was coined

Atom and His Package Possibly the Smallest Band on the List, Atom & His
Atom and His Package Possibly the smallest band on the list, Atom & his Package consists of Adam Goren (Atom) and his package (a Yamaha music sequencer) make funny punk songs utilising many of of the package's hundreds of instruments about the metric system, the lead singer of Judas Priest and what Jewish people do on Christmas. Now moved on to other projects, Atom will remain the person who told the world Anarchy Means That I Litter, The Palestinians Are Not the Same Thing as the Rebel Alliance Jackass, and If You Own The Washington Redskins, You're a ****. Ghost Mice With only two members in this folk/punk band their voices and their music can be heard along with such pride. This band is one of the greatest to come out of the scene because of their abrasive acoustic style. The band consists of a male guitarist (I don't know his name) and Hannah who plays the violin. They are successful and very well should be because it's hard to 99 when you have such little to work with. This band is off Plan It X records and they put on a fantastic show. Not only is the band one of the leaders of the new genre called folk/punk but I'm sure there is going to be very big things to come from them and it will always be from the heart. Defiance, Ohio Defiance, Ohio are perhaps one of the most compassionate and energetic leaders of the "folk/punk" movement. Their clever lyrics accompanied by fast, melodic, acoustic guitars make them very enjoyable to listen to.
