  • Featuring all the best of Irish Rebel rhythm, Paddy Punk, & Celtic Rock


    This Mid-January Midwinter show will foccus on Irish Rebel music and will be a great deal more insurgent and politically motivated then in the past, while we will always play songs about craic and football and good times, there will be less tunes about drinking and so forth in this January show, and alot more inspirational Irish music singing the sound of freedom....

    In the powerful sound of Irish rebellion expressed in this brilliant Irish Rebel music, the strong spirit of the Irish people and that of the exile community lives and breathes -

    Speaking the undaunted voice of Mother Ireland :

    That She will shake off her chains and reclaim her sovereignty and freedom -

    Because the Irish people - and this includes the sons and daughters of the Irish Diaspora - will fight on until they win true unmitigated Freedom:

    In the words of Florrie o' Donoghue, speaking of the people of Cork and the aftermath of the British onslaught of the Black and Tans:

    "The calm undaunted fate of those people looking at the ruins of their own homes. I am not referring to my own people merely. I saw and spoke to them all, and I am convinced that there was something supernatural in the unshakable courage and olden Gaelic simplicity of these people. Truly the hills of Ireland could be levelled to the ground and all her children driven out upon seas of the world before England can conquer us while we have such faith and courage."

    Wise words and true -

    Such faith and courage is to be heard in the powerful musical fire of Irish Rebel music - the poetry of Pearse, the resilience of the Irish farmer - surviving through drought, famine, and bleak winters with barely enough to feed his own children, much less his livestock - and the inner strength of Bobby Sands, Mickey Devine, Francis Hughes, Patsy O' Hara, Raymond Mc Creesh, Thomas McElwee, Martin Hurson, Kevin Lynch, Kieran Doherty, and Joe McDonnell ---

    To summon the combined will and courage of Cuchulainn and Finn Mac Cuhal --

    In the knowledge that through great sacrifice comes Victory -

    In the immortal words of Padraig Pearse:

    You cannot extinguish the Irish passion for Freedom. If our deed has not been sufficient to win freedom, then our children will win it by a better deed.....

    At Easter time, nineteen-sixteen

    When flowers bloomed and leaves were green
    There dawned a day when freedom's cry
    Called out brave men to fight and die

    They were the men with a vision, the men with a cause
    The men who defied their oppressor's laws
    The men who traded their chains for guns
    Born into slav'ry, they were Freedom's Sons

    In Dublin town, they fought and died
    With Pearse, McDermott and McBride
    "Ourselves alone!" their battle cry
    And freedom sang to the Easter sky


    A poet's dream had sparked a flame
    A raging fire, it soon became
    And from that fire of destiny
    There rose a nation proud and free

    Six counties are in bondage still
    They died brave men, was this their will?
    When they are free and oppressions cease
    Only then brave men can rest in peace

  • Mise Eire - I am Ireland:
    I am older than the Old Woman of Beare.
    Great my glory
    I that bore Cuchulainn the valiant.
    Great my shame:
    My own children that sold their mother.
    I am Ireland: I am lonelier than the Old Woman of Beare.

    - Padraig Pearse
