"SOME GOOD CRAIC " -with BANGERS AND MASH

Wednesday 10/24/12 - Some Good Craic welcomes BANGERS AND MASH to the show . The show starts at 8 pm est . Jonny Ra will be back  during the show with the News from the Emerald Isle that'll make you smile.

Formed in New York in 2003, Bangers and Mash absolutely refuses to define itself as a “unique blend of fiddle and guitar” or “a cutting edge combination of rock and traditional Irish music”.

Make no mistake – they are unique, and they do blend fiddle and guitar, along with bass, drums, vocals and various other noise-making items. However, this is not the ubiquitous “Celtic Rock Band” performing the usual Irish Top 40. Perish the thought!

Bangers and Mash is a rare treat… a band of hardworking, talented musicians who perform their own music, their own way. Sure, you might occasionally find a familiar Irish tune dropped into the middle of a rock ballad, and you may even hear something that sounds vaguely like “The Fields of Athenry” now and then. (How “vaguely”? You’ll be on the third verse before saying “Wait a minute, I think I know this song!”)

What you will hear, from the opening notes of their first song to the last beat of the encore, is original, driving and brilliant songs guaranteed to stick with you the whole way home... and beyond. Songs that make you laugh, dance, think, sing along and come back for more. All delivered in a style that is uniquely Bangers and Mash.
