GallieGallie is a critically acclaimed songwriter from Ireland. His album 'The Occoquan River' has made it to a number of Best of the year lists from radio and press. Gallie is a natural raconteur who's performances have been getting rave reviews, at first it sounds like easy listening folk music but combine this with a killer story and you have the masterful art of Gallie and 'The Occoquan River'.
Gallie's shows are like no other; he has the capacity to reach a large audience on a one to one level due to the warmth that he brings through his songs and story telling. The stories are sometimes comical, sometimes tragic but the delivery is always from the heart. |

The Hillbilly Goatsestival favourites and Golden Guitar Finalists, The Hillbilly Goats, aren’t just a band – they’re a 'show' featuring stories and song combined with hard fiddle, fast harmonica, clogging, bones and big harmonies, drawing from traditional folk tunes. Their passion lies in the history of the music that was created by immigrants and they seek out stories of songs almost forgotten and bring them back to life with boundless energy.
See Goat Girl running through the crowd rattling the bones, Goat Boy playing drums, banjo and harmonica at once while Giddy Goat dances up a storm whilst playing fiddle flat out! Kick yer shoes off, put yer hoe down and hang on to yer britches! These Goats are not to be missed! |
