| Description: | Songs For Ceilidh was not formed to be a cover band. Their interpretation of traditional Celtic classics owes more to Cape Breton influences then it does to traditional Irish. While respecting the original music, their arrangements reflect a modern sensibility and desire to ‘keep it moving’! Their ever growing body of original works reflects this same balance of tradition and innovation. While they bring a solid repertoire of traditional Celtic classics, don’t expect to hear ‘Danny Boy’ or ‘Irish Eyes’. Lively and fun is the emphasis. Upbeat classics and originals, with the occasional love song or ballad, provide a sound which appeals to all. “We’re looking for people to enjoy themselves as much as we do! That’s what it’s all about!” Since 2005, Songs For Ceilidh has become a local favorite in Massachusetts. Performances include the Worcester Irish Festival, the Worcester St. Paddy’s Day Parade, and the 2008 Worcester Flag Day Festival. They have also performed in numerous town concerts and local pubs and been featured on the Internet, local radio and television. In 2009, Songs For Ceilidh released their first full length CD “Beneath the Waves”. Highlander Radio called it ”...a swell of deep-sea musical Celtic heaven...ten tracks of Celtic bliss.” In 2008 Songs For Ceilidh’s demo CD was released. Two of the songs, ‘Jolly Rover’ and ‘The Catch’, both became most requested songs in the month of April on Highlander Radio. On St. Paddy’s Day, 2008, the Band’s performance at Mickey Cassidy’s Irish Pub was recorded and selected tracks are available at www.SongsForCeilidh.com. Today, the band is actively writing and preparing for their second CD.
