Welcome pdtj I have heard all bands with the exception of Prydein. I don't see them listed in our music. All the other bands I have heard on Highlander Radio and Celtic Rock. Keep listening I'm sure you'll here them sooner or later. Give them a request. I hope your weather's great in Co.
I'd like to recommend a group called Omnia (in the past, aslo known as Omnia Neocelt) They're A dutch band, though the frontman Steve originates from Cornwall, and one of the guitarists (Joe Hennon) is from Ireland, though he only plays at special occasions, due to other obligations. Their performances are in english though, and they sing in english (and in gaelic, indian/pakistani (don't know which of the 2) and gibberish) A lot of their music, especially their older pieces, is inspired by / based on celtic classics, though they give it a unique twist.
they operate/publish under their own label (PaganScum Records)

Tact? What good in tact? I've tried that on people, and they still don't do what I want!
Na Fianna is a great group from Ireland and sound great. Their official site is http://www.nafiannamusic.com So far they have only released a single, but they are talented. I'm hoping to see more from them.
Go to East Durham in the Greene County Catskills in New York State for Celtic music, especially Memorial Day Weekend, and in July during Irish Arts week, great place, great music all around....this site brings you to both events, check it out.....
I would like to suggest Scottish Band Cross The Border 5/6 piece folky rocky ban Their debut album Here we Stand is great and gets lots of airplay on other stations You Can download on a pay what you want basis http://crosstheborder.bandcamp.com the bands main website is http://crossthebordermusic.co.uk
I recommend Ken O'Malley, especially if you like traditional Irish music. My favorite album of his is "ÓMáille" but Amazon seems to think it's "Amaille" if you're looking for the CD format. Here's a link to the MP3 album so you can preview it Here
I recommend a new band , Fravimal Irish rock, especially if you like Irish Rock music. This band is composed by four members and they are French and draw inspiration from "Les ramoneurs de menhirs" (great Irish band in France).
They have made concert in different place from Toulouse and that was pretty good.

If you are still adding bluegrass music you need to check out O.C.M.S. ( Old Crow Medicine Show )... they are from New England and have my feet tapping.

One can not profess to be of "GOD" and show intolerence and prejudice towards the beliefs of others.

Wagon Wheel is one of my favorites from the O.C.M.S. album.
Could not agree with you more, Shadows. Bluegrass heaven! These guys can play.
Haynes, Doc Watson discovered these boys playing the street infront of a pharmacy in Nashville ( I believe ), if anyone knows bluegrass it is Doc Watson.
Has there been anything played from the Brave soundtrack? There's a few good songs on there aside from the instrumental stuff. Didn't see the album anywhere in the requests lineup.
