Solas-Coconut dog/morning dew

Irish band Solas

[@denispavluchuk]

Its the best Irish music I ever heard!!!!)))

[@Shooterpirat]

I remember when I was a kid and we went to that folk festival in scotland. I was bored and annoyed the whole day. But in the evening they opened the big tent and bands were playing songs like this and in the end of the night everybody was dancing with everybody! This is such a great memory - since that day I love folk music. I always feel good listening to such amazing music! :) Great song!

[@monahubbartt2084]

This band is one of my all time favorites. I have seen them a few times when they come to DC. I never get tired of the music. It makes me want to dance all the time. They also do some traditional Irish music which I also love. Love to sing along! Keep the music going Solas!

[@sorcha425]

I first saw/heard them a few years ago at a folk festival...completely fell in love with their sound!!! And I just found a concert their doing is near me-- so excited!

[@woodbanger2020]

I've seen then 8 or 9 times and cant wait to see them again. This is truley spiritual takes me out and spins me in dream arms

[@Raichu234]

My favourite irish band. Solas are soooo good. I love this reel, very american western guitar with a blend of irish in the morning dew...beautiful :)

[@lagoat5]

Dont think it gets much better than this!

[@catamaraner]

Love the way they get in synch before breaking out the reel: and Winna's dancing feet are a joy! Thank you all for giving your wonderful talents and energies to nourishing the Irish music root/trunk and several of its flowering branches as well! Not to mention providing a wonderful example of Morning Dew :-)

[@marlesimms]

The music is a phenomenon of nature - I could listen to it for hours. But my favorite part of the video is to see them grinning like idiots because they're having such an awesome time playing. THIS is music.

[@boisei0]

The show is on dvd, Reunion: a decade on Solas. It's recorded in the Irish pub of Philadelphia, with a sold out show. I don't remember the farther details of it, but I will search it, I have the dvd, and place it here asap.

[@canesmojo]

I hope they eventually find their way back together again. One of the best live bands I have EVER seen in any genre. Absolutely amazing, and if the people who missed seeing them live

[@denispavluchuk]

They are grate and wonderful. They excite me from the first sound. When i listen to them my body is moving by itself. Every sound like river of life!!!

[@DerTeke]

I saw them in a small Church in Germany. I guess there were about 150 people and the athmosphere was incredible. It´s a pitty that i doesnt have any video material...

[@tdbsnr]

Just got back from Celtic Connections - could only afford 3 days, nothing but wonderful music 1400 - 0300 hours, just great, and you will be able to view some on BBC Alba/iPlayer. Solas were just stunning, a beautiful memorial, not overdone, to all those who worked & died in Shamrock City, a breathtaking performance in wonderful surroundings. Book yourself in to Celtic Connections 2014!

[@pcmaclean]

They are SO damn good

[@windybaer]

It doesn't get any better than this . Thanks Donegal Winnie rocks.

[@drfallon]

These guys/gal are the best ever -- and I've seen quite a few of them.

[@donkeywaffle]

I just found this song on my buddies spotify playlist. These guys rock!

[@btfresno2]

yes, INDEED they do :-)

[@danmoran01]

Looking forward to seeing Solas at the Michigan Irish Music Festival.

[@KennedysKitchen]

Solas changed how I hear this music, and how I play it. I think that they have change how all of us hear and play it. I promoted them into my home town before anyone here, myself included, knew who they were. It was my first show. I'm not even sure why I took it on, but I'm glad that I did. I got a phone call from John Williams, who I knew, but not all that well, and he asked me if I knew any venues that might be interested in the new band that he was in. It changed, Solas changed, everything for me. Here they are, a very different lineup, still taking common tunes into a whole new landscape, opening them up while remaining true.

[@Raichu234]

actually now fave band of all time!

[@Raichu234]

ah that sounds just amazing! I will be on my MA singing performance course then but I sure will! Must see fave band live... :)

[@coolkoshki93]

My favorite Irish band, too!!! ... Saw them at Vanderbilt in Nashville, TN a couple of years ago and they were WONDERFUL!! My boys and I enjoyed their concert so much, and it was really enjoyable to meet them afterwards. Hope they visit Tennessee again soon! :)

[@jkvcrdr]

I was there too! I had never heard them before. What a night.

[@Raichu234]

What I love about Solas now is they are not just traditional they are world music. Edge of Silence displays this side of them. Favourite band forever and always will be :)

[@Peggysmusic]

Oh.....my....God! Solas is fantastic!! Thanks for sharing!

[@aliwhitwell]

This is superb! Really tight and a pleasure to listen to accomplished musicians. Made my day!

[@Wrenn00]

Absolutely Brilliant!! And I do support them. (and I have the dvd this is from, too)

[@senseblossomxxx5260]

Gorgeous

[@54spiritedwill54]

[@PirateGirl583]

i saw solas live in boston in december. they were absolutely brilliant- i got Seamus Egan and Eamon Mcelholm's autographs. they played this song and i looove it! winifred's fiddle has inspired me and i'm taking up fiddle lessons.

[@maureenfox5826]

Amazing!

[@earcandy]

Love Solas...they definitely can bring a climax up to the stairs !!!

[@imaof4]

Oh yeah! Soul music! It's a wonder my CD hasn't worn out! Thanks for sharing "classic" Solas!! :)

[@erasmusomnius]

Doggone it. Missed them in Portland, OR Alladain Theater recently. HOpe they come back soon, this is wonderful, timeless.

[@Vaskis4life]

Acoustic bass! Now THAT's awesome.

[@Raichu234]

[@popeye1250]

Wow! GREAT STUFF!

[@ronkopald]

Holy god, this is one of the tightest groups I've heard! They're all amazing. Us hayseeds over here in 'meruka don't have that kind of rhythm. Seriously. These guys are fucking great.

[@morganl5032]

Actually, they're an American band...

[@ronkopald]

***** Hah, what do I know! Well they're great. Thanks for the beta.

[@darrenbrereton6967]

Winnie the fiddle player is American alright. The other guys are Irish.

[@lulumimina]

This is so awesome! I wish I could play fiddle like that! Keep up the good work

[@tdbsnr]

Dynamite! They are playing just ONE concert in the UK, Celtic Connections 18.1.13, debuting their latest project 'Shamrock City, have invited their followers to suggest the playlist for the 2nd half, and I'VE GOT A TICKET! (I hope dear God that the winter weather won't prevent them from flying in - I'll get there with crampons on my knees if necessary.) Any of you guys coming? Raichu234?

[@demoras]

Wow! They are awesome!

[@tdbsnr]

This track/clip is just F A N T AS T I C, Solas at the TOP of their game, & Vanessa Mae could learn a thing or two from them!!! Love it!

[@trogdorpontiac]

Wonderful guitar work.

[@anphash]

Pure Class - Planxty overtones

[@tdbsnr]

Well, try & book yourself a performance slot on the New Voices Sessions, warm up at Adelaides' afternoon slots (small more intimate venue, nice acoustics). The whole festival atmosphere is brilliant, and you will meet so many musicians of all styles & ages.

[@chansherly212]

[@Ceibhfhionn]

According to some trad listeners, Solas is on its way to being the next Bothy Band. Myself, I prefer original Bothy Band and the more sparse instrumentations of Altan.
