Album Notes

This CD from one of the Pacific Northwest's most exciting Irish bands was recorded LIVE over one weekend at Kells Irish Pub in Portland, OR. It has all the feel of a great and spontaneous night with great music in a great old pub. So grab a pint, put on your dancing shoes, and join the party!

An Irish power trio offering dynamic vocals, 3-part harmonies, scorching hot fiddle, funky upright acoustic/electric bass and tight acoustic rhythm guitar, St. James's Gate will get your party dancing with infectious and irresistible music.

Comprised of three exceptionally talented and experienced musicians, SJG specializes in a wide range of Irish Music, including beautiful Irish ballads and waltzes, faster than lightening reels and jigs, traditional pub songs, and contemporary Irish music. They also incorporate bluegrass, polka, Cajun, and classic English/American rock and folk music in their broad repertoire.

I already bought this during a live performance in WA, but got another for a friend who met them also. I've listened to this CD a lot while driving, and still can't sit still. My absolute favorite is Fishermans Blues... This music is so alive and just a banquet for the soul. This girl loves it.

This CD really captures the essence of their music. It made my St. Patrick's Day about as good as it gets. They sound great live and this CD captures that sound.
