“I don’t know this guy Patrick Street, but I tell you, the boys in his band are really good.”
The original Irish “supergroup” Patrick Street began with four recognized masters - Kevin Burke (ex-Bothy Band), singer/bouzouki player Andy Irvine (ex-Planxty), Jackie Daly (ex-De Dannan), and multi-instrumentalist Ged Foley (formerly of the Battlefi eld Band)-joining forces for a one off tour de force in 1986. Interlacing Kevin Burke’s highly ornamented Sligo fiddle styles, Daly’s wide repertoire of Sliabh Luachra polkas and slides, Irvine’s intricate Balkanesque bouzouki ballads, Ged Foley’s inventive guitar licks added to new recruit John Carty’s inimitable banjo style, Patrick Street brims with the spirit and sensitivity of Irish music at its best.
Chuireadh bun le Patrick Street i1986 nuair a tháinig Andy Irvine, Jackie Daly agus Kevin Burke le chéile don chéad uair fá coinne trus a dhéanamh sna Stáit Aontaithe. Idir an dá linn, áfach, tá deich albaim taifeadtha acu agus an iliomad trusanna déanta ar fud an domhain. Is croílár an ghrúpa iad Andy, Jackie agus Kevin go fóill ach tá an giotaraí Ged Foley is an fi diléir John Carty ag casadh leo le roinnt blianta anuas anois. Ó thaobh ceol agus amhránaíocht traidisiúnta de, lena mhachallaí de Planxty, Dé Danann agus An Bothy Band, bheadh sé thar a bheith deacair an teacht le chéile seo a shárú.

“a rare combination of breathtaking virtuosity and the relaxed grace of masters, playing this ancient music at its wild and humble best.” THE BOSTON GLOBE
