Album Notes

*** TWO TIME WINNER of AUSTIN MUSIC AWARD ***

A compilation of our most-popular Irish drinking songs about drinking.

Marc drinks. Andrew drives. This partnership has led to one of the most-productive Celtic music groups in Texas. Though one half of the Brobdingnagian Bards does not drink, this doesn’t stop the duo from having a lot of fun singing their favorite Irish Drinking Songs. You don't have to drink alcohol to enjoy this fun compilation of the Brobdingnagian Bards most-popular songs about drinking.

We went through our earlier CDs and picked our favorites songs about drinking and put them on one CD. All of the songs are newly remastered. You'll find songs from A Faire To Remember, Songs of Ireland, Brobdingnagian Fairy Tales, and even a track from our first CD, Marked By Great Size. Plus, there are five new songs currently unavailable that we hope to release on one of our next CDs.

Special thanks to Michael and Evo of SliceOfSciFi.com who inspired the album. Thanks to Deb who helped inspire the idea for the CD cover which was photographed and designed by Marc Gunn.

The Holy Grail of Irish Drinking Songs
author: Michaela Prochazkova
                            
These are very funny! I translated one of them (Seven Drunken Nights)in Czech - Marc knows about it and he has read it because I sent him my translation. We already sing it - how say you it? - when we are together alongside our camp-fire and I am certain that it will be folk-song very soon! We are some party with boats - kanoes, I mean, and we are used to go by stream down on our beautiful river Vltava with its georgeous sandy meanders ... and by nights we are used to do some fire and to do some dinner and then to sing some songs, you know, and to have some drink, I reckon that people are the same in entire world...and  songs connect us.
