"Cormorant's Fancy is a gifted band with a knack for gorgeous arrangements." - Tom Knapp, Rambles.NET, 17 March 2006
Cormorant's Fancy performs Irish, Scottish and other Celtic and British Isles traditional and contemporary folk music. Featuring their own arrangements with fine harmonies and multifaceted instrumentals blending concertina, penny whistles, low whistles, guitar, bass, keyboards and bodhran, Cormorant's Fancy has quickly established themselves as one of the finest Celtic bands in central Pennsylvania. Venues have characterized Cormorant's Fancy as "the area's most energetic and spellbinding Irish folk band." Their name is based on the original Gaelic meaning of Dan Diviney's surname. Cormorant's Fancy was founded in September, 2003. Their first CD, "An Evening at the Fairfield Inn" was recorded between February and November 2005. It includes hard-driving songs, tender ballads, lively jigs and reels, and haunting slow airs, from the Celtic traditions of Ireland, Scotland, Wales and North America. Oriskany Stringed Instruments, Huntingdon, PA, builds all guitars played by Cormorant's Fancy, as well as the bouzouki. Don't miss seeing luthiers Curtis Rockwell's and Johanna Mutti's gorgeous instruments at www.oriskanyguitars.com. Curtis plays and sings with the band when available.

The meeting between Amelia Campbell and Dave Harnetty in 2004 brought about the Scalags. The Collection of music on the Scalags 1st album is an eclectic mix of old and new songs and music. "Stool of Repentance" is a tune written in the 1700's by Neil Gow, friend of Robert Burns and by all accounts, one of Burn's favourite tunes. The Scalags' arrangement of the music has brought it to a feel of rock-trad-house mix. "Serene Loch", also featured on myspace.com, is an ambient water chillout track. Some friends joined the CD, featuring Ballyhoo bassist Doug Nisbet and drummer Willie Murray on "Solid Ground".

The Molly Maguires are an energetic pub band out of Chattanooga, TN. They mostly play traditional drinking and rebel tunes - with an occasional modern or anti-war song mixed in.
One fan comments: "You made me feel like I was in a real Irish Pub, you did. I sang along drunkenly to songs I didn't know, I had girls crawling all over me, I slapped a man in the face because he begged me to, and I woke up the next day not remembering much at all with a bump on the back o' me head. If you've never seen The Molly Maguires, that is what it is like." The Mollies are - Marc Michael: Guitar, vocals, bodhran, whistle Julie Kunesh: Vocals, bodhran, bones, percussion Michael Walters: Mandolin, guitar, bozouki, vocals Hometown: Chattanooga, TN Influences: The Wolfetones, The Pogues, Ron Kavana, Christy Moore Website: The Molly Maguires Download MP3: "Honest Work"
