ok, it's a wee bit out of tune sometimes, but feel the joy :-)

Poitín at Carpe Diem Prague Live 2014

My version of a well known Latin American song, in Spanish, with an improvised backing track.

Cucurucucu Paloma

TRANS - SIB BELLS MOTIF

Reflecting strongly the American singer-songwriters of the early ‘70s, Moorby Jones also sign in with their own distinctive contemporary voice. These three experienced and versatile musicians have a large repertoire of their own songs, featuring well-crafted lyrics and powerful melodies. 

Steve Moorby (guitar/pedal steel/keyboards/mandolin/vocals) and Dick Jones (bass guitar/bouzouki) first met up as very junior musicians in legendary ‘70s weirdfolk band Tintagel. Gelling as songwriters from the start, they lost contact with the break-up of the band and were only reunited some four years ago. Joined by Steve’s daughter Gemma (guitar/keyboards/drums/vocals and drummer with synth-pop songwriters-to-the-great Kish Mauve), Moorby Jones represent a potent example of continuity, creativity and innovation.
