They put together a CD and called it Soul Path. Thus...their sound was born.Their style is a bit different from the norm. The music comes straight from the soul, reflecting the universe as well.

Slane isn't the same band it used to be. It first began in 2004 as a four-piece folk group that performed mostly traditional tunes. For two years, this is how the band was defined. After that, it changed into an original and acoustic rock band, containing only one of the four original members. The band had now contained seven pieces, and was far more musically invovled than when it began.
Finally, Slane came into its own. The band now contains only two people, the ones who originally started the band. They record at long distances, creating a few solo numbers working on adding a third member. Big things are in store for this band. Keep an eye on them.

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.

Their sound is unique and catchy. Listeners will travel through the times of the Celts and discover their own Celtic roots.

From finger-style guitar, hammered dulcimer, piano, recorders and vocals, his sound is refreshing and original. Although he hand no formal music training, he began to play guitar at the ge of 17. Since then, he has learned to play more than ten other instruments and has written almost 100 original songs. His latest CD, Prairie Rain, conveyes stories through the sounds of all of these instruments. Of his work, Thomas says, "One of the greatest challenges as a musician is to be able to convey emotions and pictures in music, and doing that with instrumental songs is even more difficult. How do you make a piano sound like a baby waking up, or a guitar sound like a hawk flying, or a dulcimer sound like a rainstorm? That's what I was trying to achieve in this project."
