About
‘Liffey Street’, a mature Irish Folk & Traditional band playing all over the UK, Ireland & Europe, manage to balance the two extremes of Irish/Celtic music, passionately patriotic without ramming it down your throat! Front man/guitarist Brian Roebuck, the well respected Irish balladeer, was already in top form.
“I won’t attempt to recall what came, when one classic stormer followed the next - ‘God Save Ireland’, ‘The Foggy Dew’, ‘The Town I loved So Well’, emotion drenched vocals, cracking tenor banjo, melodic flute & whistles and the fiddle - not just mere jigs and reels, but superb touches of classical bow work, 1st violin cunningly mixed with gypsy riffs.”
