Foley Road: News

We have been taking some time to work up a second CD. We hope to have it out before the end of the Fall. Be looking for it!!

Just to add my two cents worth, I thought everybody did just great. I was constantly looking both to my right and left and saw those fingers moving around with wonderful music coming out. Nobody would believe
that we hardly had anything to work with on paper; often, not even a melody line. The real music came from our hearts and it sounded just wonderful, at least to me.

Last night was THE BEST! You all were magnificent--new material and old. I had so many pieces in my ear for the rest of the night. Thank you! I am SO LUCKY to play
with all of you and to have so much fun! Jill-your niece was so cute--I wished her the best on her musical journey. This gig was the best yet, and I am feeling more
at ease, and can have more smile-time! Be well---WE ALL BROKE LOTS OF OUR LEGS LAST NIGHT-so to speak(classical music send off: "break a leg" for a good performance------Dottie

I know that none of this really needs to be said, but I'll say it
anyway. I thought we put on one hell of a performance Saturday night. I got so many compliments, I couldn't believe it. We gave the audience a great big dose of our Foley Road magic and I could not have been more proud to have been a part of it.
Thank you so much, I love you all.

Hello, folks!
Decent night at the coffee shop last night... Teresa really sounded awesome. Teresa and Fred had a couple of pennywhistle duets that were just lovely.

There are now three CD's link to our site. Check out "links" section to see what we have!!

Just posted our first reviews online. From taxi.com. Take a few seconds to read them.

Our CD will soon be in digital release on about a zillion online sites, where you will be able to buy one song or the whole album. There is even going to be a ringtone for sale. Of course you can still buy it at CDbaby by going through our 'Buy' link. This is excitement!!

Thanks for all those who came to hear us. We had a tremendous time. I hope we did a good job for you. Let me know by emailing me.

Had another good time at our most recent show at Fernbank Park in North Bend, Ohio. We have CD's now. If you would like one, let me know at my email. They are only five bucks and you are getting some good stuff for less that .99 a song. That is even better that ITunes!!

Jill's second song with Foley Road. It sounds great!! Give it a listen.

This is Jill's intro to the world wide web and what would be more fitting than the great Irish classic "Danny Boy"! I tell you, it will bring tears to your eyes.

Had another recording session last night and did a really great version of a Celtic tune called "Ships are Sailing". This one you have to give a listen to. It sounds great and everybody contributed. Ann with her flying hammers, Fred, with his punchy guitar. Teresa and her fabulous flute and Jill doing the 12-string. Oh yeah, and yours truly on the bodhran.

We had a great time at the North Bend United Methodist Church, so much so that we have been invited for two more engagements. One will be at the end of August and is on our calender. The second one will during the holiday season.

Ann recently was in Michigan and bought herself a brand new hammer dulcimer. She says the sound is impressive and that the band will love it. We hope you all will to.

Re-did an old classic by the Irish harpist O'Carolan, Si Bheag Si Mohr, with a bit of a twist. Fred is playing classical guitar, I am on lap dulcimer. What is really fabulous is Ann on hammer dulcimer and Teresa on silver flute and penny whistle. How can I be so lucky to play with such talent?!!!
