    Music Recommendations?

    Ok guys,

    So far I already have music from these bands:

    Off Kilter
    The Dubliners
    The Real McKenzies
    Floggin Molly
    Fiddler´s Green
    Red Hot Chilli Pipers
    Rob Crabtree

    Do you have any other recommendation that I can find in Itunes?

    Is there any Rock-Celtic band? I liked Floggin Molly and Real McKenzies, but they are more like Punk-Celtic band

    Thanks in advance
    Omar

    I like The Rogues (especially their early stuff), Rathkeltair and The Battlefield Band.

    I like Gaelic Storm (they were the under-decks 'session' band in the movie Titanic). They do a mix of trad tunes with some of their own compositions. More or less a 'pub/session band', not necessarily rock. They have several CD's out, so I imagine they're on iTunes as well.

    Other Celtic performers (maybe not rock) that may be on iTunes:
    Seven Nations
    Father, Son & Friends
    Albannach

    They perform at some of our regioanl Highland Games, so I don't know what kind of presence they have online.

    (Personally, I don't have any i-anything - at least not yet).

    I like Gordon Duncan

    and, maybe a bit more modern, Martyn Bennett

    Sadly, both of them are no longer with us.

    Thank you John,

    The problem is that here in Mexico we don´t have any Highland Games, I´m part of the St. Andrews Society Mexico, and we just have some family picnics, with some Highland Games, but nothing that big.

    We just have a couple of bands "Celtic Accident" which are not longer together and Ogham, which are more classical celtic music (not the one you can hear in a Pub).

    We also have the "Banda de Gaitas del Batallon de San Patricio" they do drums and pipes only

    Thats why I´m looking for some Itunes stuff

    Thanks for the recommendations

    Well, Laddie, having just been in Edinburgh and visited Jamie's and watched their program, I now have a soft spot for Gordon Puttullo on the accordian and Gemma Donald on the violin. I know they both have cd's out and are available through Amazon. I don't know about iTunes, I don't use it. I picked up one of Gordon's cd's after the program and wish I'd have gotten the violin cd, too. That's my 2 centavos worth.
