If you want your Irish music to be straight ahead traditional with no frills, just delicious home grown music, then Tarbolen is for you. I love folk instruments and the combination of the octave mandolin and banjo can be irresistible. The Bluegrass lover in me says it is one of the best releases this year. Traditional music is alive and kicking!
More about Tarbolen:
The Feekers are a folk music duo from Dublin. Darren Lynch plays mandola and octave mandolin and Johnny Keenan plays banjo and whistle.
This is the title track from their album Tarbolten.
Their debut album is now available from Claddagh Records:

There is such a hint of what is to come in the Appalachians here in the States. You’re right, it has that taste of bluegrass and I love it!
