here is another group ya dont mind hearing for an hour very versitale wonder what they are like in concert..... specialy like their rendition of "rosin the bow".... sound a bit like tom waits on "whiskey to the sea" another great featured artist segment.... do it again please.......
ps does anybody know more about this band? ie bar band, faire band? concert band? where de from???
See that is one thing I love about Celtic music, it is fun to listen to and your foot is always tapping when you listen. The music is mostly upbeat and sounds like a continual celebration.
Hey guys, I'll pass on you're great comments to my husband, he is one of the founders of Barleyjuice. He really appreciates hearing that people like his band. He and the rest of the band are in the process of writing new tunes and hopefully will have a new cd out in the fall after the gig season. They play lots of festivals and bars in the eastern PA area. Also they will be performing in NYC on April 2nd, Tartan Day, at Rocky Sullivans. If you go to their website you can watch a promo video. You can find their website at http://www.barleyjuice.com/ They are so much fun to see live, they really put on a great show, they make you want to get up and do a jig!
Thanks again for your kind remarks!
My favorite cd is Another Round as well! I wonder why??
You can let them know that I bought Another Round on Tuesday due to their exposure on this site and I can't wait until the CD arrives. The one song I had to have was Whiskey to the Sea although What's up yours? is rather catchy. Feel free to pass along my praise and thanks as well.

I think Barley Juice are fantastic. I live in the western US and have a lot of the people listening to them for the first time. I first heard of them here on CR. Then I managed to win their cd's. I think they are very fun, they put you in a good mood, which is important now a days.
[COLOR=purple]Brian, my husband, Swanny, said since they are bent on world domination, they will make it down to NC sooner or later! Seriously, I hope that the more exposure they get, the more likely they will be asked to perform at various festivals throughout the US.
He just read all of your comments and is so pleased and wishes Barleyjuice could come to everyone's town and perform! It's people like you who make it all worthwhile.
I have a thing for the more traditional(and yes sometimes over played/remade) irish tunes, and after hearing their rendition of Rosin The Bow I can honestly say I was hooked on the Barleyjuice. I gotta confess that I am one of the ones that request this song and band so much the request button next to their song names are getting worn out
aye i am with ye whistler...... lets get rosin the bow on the top ten........ we will start a grass roots movement..... let it swell across america........... well at least get em on the top ten....
