"The Sign of the Cross" by Kevin Flynn & The Avondale Ramblers Traditional Irish music was their main influence, yet the songs and music of Kevin Flynn and the Avondale Ramblers are anything but traditional. In fact, the key to their unique sound is taking traditional Celtic/Gaelic music and expanding on it, finding their own sound...and presenting it in a new and interesting way. This Chicago-based band also does something different when it comes to their tunes. Lyrically, these Irish-inspired songs are about Chicago, not Ireland, but hold fast to the themes of the working-class, religious, drunken, sometimes violent (yet always somewhat beautiful) aspects of their city.What you see is what you get. What you get is a lot of talent and a lot of flavor when you listen to Kevin Flynn & The Avondale Ramblers.

Shake 'em all together in a titanium bar shaker and serve with a glass of ice water and three Tylenol for the hangover."The band was formed over 10 years ago by brothers Derek Wade and Paul Bruno. Their music is a blend of traditional Irish and original tunes...described as something akin to a runaway 1969 GTO fueled by nitrous and Guinness! Pretty damn cool! Between sets, they can be found sharing a few pints with everyone, having a blast, and even having a few impromptu a-cappella sessions long after the pubs lights shut off. Every band worth its salt does it for the fans. Not every band recognizes that the blend of self love with fan love creates a symbiotic relationship that transcends any barriers – no matter what the genre. This is the heart of The Kreellers.

"For We Are Many" by Ceallach She's a singer, a composer, an arranger, a performer and a producer.

Her Celtic New Age music also tends to lean on World and Classical music as well. Ceallach has released two singles: "She Walks In Beauty," based off of the poem by Lord Byrons, as well as "For We are Many," a song that would be well-suited for a soundtrack for a feature film. Her talent is amazing.
