"Windsor's Cider" by The Merry Wives of Windsor
Their music is beyond impressive. They are The Merry Wives of Windsor. Give a listen to this all-famale group whose specialty lies in Celtic and Folk music. From exciting, hard-hitting numbers to bawdy tunes and even soulful ballads, these ladies can not only captivate their audience, but also capture the very emotions of a tune.
The Merry Wives of Windsor offer up an eclectic mix of original, contemporary and traditional songs. Their impressive vocal arrangements are beautifully accompanied by Irish bouzouki, mandolin, fiddle and bodhran. While still remaining true to their roots in folk music, they have developed a modern and exciting sound. One that is easy to listen to.

"Saxet - 4 Reels" by Poitin
How many bands out there can claim that the owner of a pub dubbed them with the band name? Poitin (pronounced Potcheen) can. In fact, very few bands can say that their name comes from a type of Moonshine, a veyr famous brand at that. Poitin has been making waves in the Celtic music industry, spreading not only their love of music, but their own unique sound in the process.
What listeners find with this band is a group that is firmly rooted in pub session tradition. Something that does make them stand out, however, is their use of a saxophonist, who also handles the low whistles.
When listening to Poitin, their style and their sound set them apart from other groups out there. Not bad for a band from the Czech Republic known for Irish music. Not bad at all.

"The Hills They Are Hollow" by Damh the Bard
Damh the Bard isn't just a musian. He is a bard in every sense. A storyteller and a poet, his songs are a tapestry of myth, peace and Pagan anthems. His stories are told in a world of myths that can't be proved. This is a world where the Faerie really do dance on Midsummer's Eve, where the trees talk, and the Hollow Hills take you into the realms of Annwn. Where the Goddess rides her horse, guiding you to magic, and the Horned God of old calls us from the shadows of the Greenwood. This is what his music is all about and each song draws the listener deeper and deeper into this world. That is a rarity for any artist these days, but Damh the Bard is a master of his own craft.
