Some 5 years ago my stephfather gave me about 12 tapes with all kind of Irish and Scottish folk music. Unfortunately he only wrote down the titels of the songs so I didn't know which band were playing them. Now, after 5 years, I've found nearly all artists and bands, but there is still one band left which I can't find anywhere. I hope I can discribe their music well enough, as my english isn't very good
-It's an Irish folk group. -Their sound is something between that of the Dubliners and the Wolfetones. -As far as I know they only do traditional songs. -One of the singers has a very low voice, which sounds a bit like Ronnie Drews (but I'm sure it isnt him!) -One of the other singers sound a bit like they leadsinger of the Dublin City Ramblers (don't know his name) -I think the records date from the early 60's
some of their songs: The bold finian men, the orange and the green, the old triangle, Take it down, the waxies dargle, a nation once again
Please, let me know if you have any idea which folkgroup this might be
