I've been on a bit of an Irish kick lately, and it's spurred me to start hashing out a bit of a writing project that's been percolating for a while. Does anyone have any good recommendations for Irish music? I'm not looking for hard rock or anything of that nature. What I'm mostly looking for is that folk rock flavor, but honestly I'll take any suggestions.

Thank you in advance to what I suspect will be predominantly the UK B8ers.

This is a great start. I'll get to listening.

I would never have expected you to dig a piece with light choral... right off the bat! You always surprise me with the wide array of stuff you enjoy.

New York Girls is in Assassin's Creed IV! I recognized it right away. These were pretty great, Snake. Rose Tattoo was probably the closest to what I was looking for.

I found an interesting Irish Christian band of all things that has some good music that fits what I was looking for -

Hey Snake, unrelated, but have you heard this choral version of Hide and Seek by Imogen Heap?

Glad you liked them! I love Irish music, so it's always nice to share some. I wasn't expecting Rose Tattoo to be the type you were looking for actually.

Haven't heard that one you posted before, I like it!

I saved nine of them on spotify for playlisting while I'm writing.

The Dropkick Murphys remind me a lot of Flogging Molly, which is definitely too hard of edge for what I was looking for.

That is, the first I meant. Second is really nice too though, it's calming for sure.

It's somehow more haunting than the original version of that song, weirdly.

I was getting some really unique recommendations off of the Irish music. That was one.

Yeah, pretty great band. Can't go wrong with Bluegrass, and that Irish Folk-y touch is even more fantastic.

I accidentally clicked on Popcorn_Fairy's posting of JigJam-Hello World and then accidentally clicked on the video in scarletspeed7's quote four seconds later, and it started playing in a perfect round, and I recommend it.
