Spoons... wow. Haven't gotten this into an album in years. Absolutely awesome, one of the best Irish singer-songwriters I've ever heard. Any other fans out there?

I haven't stopped listening to it since I got it about two or three weeks back. Some great upbeat songs, couple of nice quiet ones for good measure too.

Shes awsome alright! Love her

BarryCreed

good voice. good guitar player

Oink

Love her. She s completely nuts. She has so much fun on stage that you can't help jumping around. Un-believable. She just wont stop.

I remember the first time I saw her, she was busking in Grafton St. I was rooted to the spot, and listened to her whole set. She won't marry me though.

SarahJ

Ha no way, busking on Grafton Street! What a ledge. Is her boyf in her band?

Oink

dunno but I hate him by default. :rolleyes:
I kinda miss the softer songs she used to sing in the street. Now she is more ... "rock'n'roll" . Still amazing though.

SarahJ

Ah ok, cos I heard her bf was in her band which made me like her more, like yea you tell him what to do, Girl Power and all that.


Iactually keep listening to The Circle. I love her voice at the start of it, real soft.

Saw her in the roisin there a couple of weeks ago...absolutely fantastic gig..She has this savage energy pouring from her..very good..

SarahJ

A Gf?..Thats even better again..

I wonder has she any dates planned, i'd love to see her live. Anyone know?

iamnothim

she just did a small irish tour about three weeks ago. i was at the dublin show, just like I've been at every Dublin show for the past 3 years. I'm somewhat of a fanatic - I've a load of photos on my flickr of her (see sig) and her band aoife (yes, her girlfriend), christian and micheal. spoons is a fantastic album, but really, ya gotta see her live. the album gets better once you see her live...

She's the cutest thing that I ever did see,
I really love her peaches,wanna shake her tree

In the words of the Steve Miller Band

But unfortunatley prefers the company of a lady.....

...But sure don't we all!!!!

SarahJ

Yay shes playing a gig!

SarahJ

anyone go see her tonight? She was amazing!

statss

saw her when she was starting off in college, had a feeling she'd do very well, all the talent is there. Remember one gig in Whelans about 4 years ago when her hand was bleeding she was playing guitar so hard and frentic.

Fair play to her.
