2022 - the year of the dan: chapter 23
Chapter 23
On to October. Junior Brother. Cyprus Avenue. He was born in the Bons apparently.
Joined onstage by the dream team. Dan Walsh on drums and other things. Phil Christie of The Bonk on keys. To add to JB and regular accomplice Tony on mandolin.
Furious rock and roll folk music. Spadgie folk. Free jazz folk. Odd and proud of it. Also deeply heartfelt and dare I say emotional music.
They played songs from the just released second album The Great Irish Famine. Which is wonderful.
No country for young men with the glorious singalong line, can’t tell the goons from the guards. Daly’s Well a kind of math rock Tortoise trad beast. The laugh out loud but somehow also poignant Life’s new haircut.
With this band they elevate already very good songs to the Richard Dawson stratosphere. A theatre of music and character with nothing but compelling storylines.
Accept no knock offs. Only the fuckin brilliant real thing.
Incidentally Fixity were on support. Dan and friends. This time with Phil Christie in place of second guitar. Yada yada. More amazing awesomeness.
