There was a good turnout at the Celtic Inn on Sunday for the launch of the Heavy Blarney CD.
Massively big thanks to Slapskins O'Shaughnessy, Cathal MacDeth, Seamus Finn and Paul The Pennywhistle Turner for their peerless playing, and the Celtic Inn for hosting the launch.
TurkbyTone Rekkids also would like to thank those who turned up to show their support - cheers!
Sales have already exceeded 3 units, and the Celtic have a few copies for sale, so if you're having a pint you can grab a copy at the same time.
Jim K is now in negotiations with K-Tel to get us some distribution. Watch this space for news on the Blarney Dancers!
It's a testament to the skills of the Blarney band that with only 3 practices they managed to put together a great-sounding show. Slainte, guys.
I hope that anyone who was at the gig, or listens to the CD, will maybe get inspired to pick up an instrument themselves. One of the ideas behind making the CD was to try to show people how much fun it is to play music, whether you're an advanced player or not.
Reminds me of the book "Zen Guitar", and of course Victor Wooten's fantastic one "The Music Lesson".
Let's see if I can put a link to them here somehow...
