@@christopherduffy6477these lads are hardcore trad heads. They play loads of the pure stuff, and are serious musicians technically and their band is made up of some serious trad musicians.
@@christopherduffy6477I think making trad more accessible a good thing, any trad head who gets mad about them is insecure about their interest. the music is fairly pure trad, they're just under 40 and know how to entertain a crowd. A show of theirs in Dublin was one of the best I've ever been to. Young Irish people (and other people) listening to and enjoying trad will never be a bad thing.
My Great Grandmother was born in Dundalk in 1879 and I'm looking forward to travelling to that town from her marriage town of Wolverhampton. I do hope I see you guys there when I visit dear Josephine Mary Maher's birthplace. Thank you lads for cracking music. Love it.
I discovered this band through this performance and fell in love instantly! Reminded me of New Years when I was younger, my uncles used to play guitar and sing this after the bells! 🏴 Can’t get enough of this band, they’re fantastic and I love their style!
@@paddyt4043 He puts a capo on second fret across all strings except the low E (the effect of this is like playing in Drop D, if that makes sense, so you are basically tuning d,g,b, and high e up two steps and leaving the low E as it is). Then he plays a melody, I can't transcribe that, but watch him play and you can kind of figure it out. Then he plays what would be a D, G and A. Those aren't the actual chords, but because of the capo you play those open chord shapes. This is the best I can figure it out, but he does some embellishments, so they are not just pure chords. But play within those chords and kind of improvise and you should be grand. I might not be 100% correct on all of this, but it's pretty close as far as I can tell.
The best thing about these guys is they are getting famous with out really trying and they couldn't give a rats ass
And I'd say its killing the hardcore trad heads 🤣🤣🤣

And they’ve done it without ever being signed to a record label!

you won't be disappointed
a great wee town with wonderful friendly people
@@LouLou-tl1gvI spent a mere afternoon in the mo chara bar there to escape the rain and it was already a wonderful impression of the town as a whole
They're coming to Wolves in March, I think it is, to The Halls. Gotta go and see 'em ❤
Just be warned that they used to have the two Tesco's but now they only have the one Tesco's
Best band around right now
Just what I needed at this time in my life
It’s like The Pogues starting out again
LOVE them ❤
Them and fontaines. Best about. Ireland producing some great bands at the mo
The cut of these boyos is iconic!

I’ve watched this about 20 times in the last week. I learned the guitar and have played it about 50 times. It’s such a fun tune to play.
Cords please 🙏

Mighty

Brilliant
Good on ye lads
A song about the need for contraception in the sailing community!
Fabulous band 🤘
Took the sailing references at the beginning and end, but still a good cover nonetheless.
What tuning is this?? 🤔🤔
drop D, capo 2nd fret
Capo on 2nd fret on all strings but the top E I think.
No Michael, - Edward is right. If in drop D tuning, 2nd fret capo across all brings D back to low E . Great song.
Luke Kelly is a hard act to follow
That's not the lyrics to my little armalite
Didn't help me singing those lyrics right enough 😁
Tiocfaidh ár lá…
