  • Fee Recommendation – Foellinger Theatre 2018 Season House
    Fee Recommendation – Foellinger Theatre 2018 Season House Show Gaelic Storm – September 5 Tickets Available at $24 Band Description: Gaelic Storm is a Celtic band. Their musical output includes pieces from traditional Irish music, Scottish music, and original tunes in both the Celtic and Celtic rock genres. Their most recent album, Go Climb A Tree, was released on July 28, 2017. Gaelic Storm's origins can be traced back to 1996, when Patrick Murphy and Steve Wehmeyer joined with Steve Twigger and Uillean piper Brian Walsh to perform at O'Brien's Irish Pub and Restaurant in Santa Monica, California, of which Murphy was the manager. This led to a number of pub performances for the next year. In 1997, the band appeared in the film Titanic as the steerage band. This appearance catapulted them into the touring scene; their performances were met with critical praise and popularity. They have toured throughout the United States and Canada, in the United Kingdom, France and Japan. Gaelic Storm features founders Patrick Murphy, lead vocalist and Steve Twigger on acoustic guitar along with Ryan Lacey on drums and world percussion (a two-time graduate of the Los Angeles Music Academy, first for hands and then for sticks), Pete Purvis of Merrickville, Ontario, on uilleann pipes, tin whistle, deger pipes and highland pipes (a Grade 1 piper who toured with award-winning pipe bands including the Braemar Pipe Band and played at 2000 Sydney Olympics), and Katie Grennan of Pittsburgh on fiddle. Gaelic Storm takes a true blue-collar, hard-nose approach to touring, consistently traveling the US and internationally over 200 days a year, forging a unique path in the Celtic music world.

    MOHAWK VALLEY IRISH CULTURAL Volume 13, Issue 2 EVENTS NEWSLETTER Feb 2016 2016 GAIF Lineup Includes a Mix of Old and New The official lineup for the 2016 Great American Irish Festival was announced at the Halfway to GAIF Hooley held January 31 at Hart’s Hill Inn in Whitesboro, with a compact array of veteran GAIF performers and an equal number of acts making their first appearance at the festival, and styles ranging from the delicate to the raucous. Headlining the traditional stage at this year’s festival will be an act that has become a cultural phenomenon, Ireland’s Folk Band of the year and winners of Irish Music Award’s Top Traditional Performance Show, the High Kings. Boasting a musical pedigree that few can match, and fresh off record-breaking PBS showings, four musical powerhouses, Finbarr Clancy of the legendary Clancy family, Brian Dunphy, son of well-known singer, Sean Dunphy, Martin Furey of the famous Furey family of musicians, and renowned vocalist Darren Holden have come together to create the most exciting Irish ballad group to emerge since The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem electrified the worldwide folk revival of the 1960s. For those whose tastes are a bit more contemporary, back to headline this year’s festival for the 10th consecutive year will be high-energy festival favorites, The Elders. Joining them on the Contemporary stage will be Central New York favorites, Enter the Haggis, making their long-awaited return to the festival that helped launch them to prominence in 2005. Joining the High Kings on the traditional stage will be Philadelphia’s award-winning Irish roots band, Runa, and the band we predict is going to most open the eyes and ears of GAIF attendees this year, Dallahan; recently nominated for Best Up and Coming Artist of the Year at the Scots Trad Music Awards.

  • WYCE Music Journal: Luminescent Orchestrii
    CMC | 88.1FM WYCE 4/2/09 11:05 AM WYCE Music Journal: Luminescent Orchestrii Neptune's Daughter March 16, 2009 Neptune's Daughter, by NYC's Luminescent Orchestrii, is an intriguing blend of traditional Romanian Gypsy folk songs, punk rock rhythm, bluesy vocals, and jazz improvisation. The Orchestrii, or small ensemble with orchestral intentions, is made up of a fiddler and guitarist from the NYC Theatre underground, a free-jazz bassist, and an old-time fiddler. The group toured extensively in Europe for a time, gaining much. Their music is not something you would expect to hear in modern America, but certainly welcome nonetheless. – Matt Kwiek Fula Flute Mansa America March 9, 2009 Sure, opening cut "Obama" (#1) feels like a bit of a novelty song after the 2008 election. But concentrate on the playing - especially Bailo Bah's and Sylvain Leroux's crazy good flute chops - instead of the foreign language words, and the track will win you over like everything else on the disc. This traditional-based Fulani music from the Fouta Djalon highlands of Guinea features complex balafon, kora, and flute solos that feel like the wellspring of American jazz, especially when paired with genuine jazz change-ups. But there's also a stateliness to the instrumentation that somehow seems classical. The two strains combine brilliantly on "Fouta Canada" (#5), thanks to a seamlessly integrated horn section. It's the Fulani flute that steals the show on "Lele"(#4) and "Boloba" (#6) via performances so physical, it's as if the flutist is trying to fit his entire body into the mouthpiece.
