I cannot take credit for the concept here, that accolade must go to Charlie Pinder Sony/V2/Burlywood.
One rainy winters night in Cork, he came up with the idea of doing Old Irish folk songs, a la Skully!
And so two years ago I set to work creating Skully versions of these beautiful old Irish songs. Although very electronic (after all that is what I do!) I strove to maintain the powerful emotion that these timeless master pieces possess.
The album was recorded at the beautiful Rushbrook Hotel in Cobh, where I was spoilt rotten! and at my little cottage (Seen in the photos)
I would like to sincerely thank all the artists who gave me their time and talent, each adding his or her own color and style to the songs.
We had great fun making it! I hope everyone supporting it here, has the same fun listening!
Skully.

PLEASE read my Bulletin Post, and PLEASE sign the petition below, and post on your page to gather as many signatures as possible to obtain justice for my brother who was murdered, had his body bought and sold, and for all of the families who are still begging for answers to what happened to our loved ones! This is a gruesome and wicked reality, and these crimes against humanity MUST be exposed!
