Just a quick note to wish you all the best for the Holiday Season and the New Year. I know I’m blessed to have you all in my life. This was a transition year for me as I started building a solo career after over fifteen years with Blackthorn. Thanks to the support I got from all of you, [...] Seamus Kelleher at the School of Rock This is Seamus Kelleher playing “Dust My Broom” during his final performance with the Philadelphia band Blackthorn. Seamus is focusing on his solo work. Live at Ulysses’ in NYC, 26 Oct 08 Seamus Kelleher (guitars, vocals) Brian Moran (keys) Andrew Harkin (bass) Larry Eagle (drums) Seamus Kelleher pays tribute to Rory Gallagher, his boyhood idol, in this scene from the film “Songs & Stories: New York Remembers Rory Gallagher.” Considered a guitar hero by many in his native Galway and his adopted home of New York, Seamus Kelleher has finally made the CD that showcases not only his amazing guitar playing abilities but also his song writing and singing. After thirty years of recording with a variety of artists in Ireland and the US, Seamus headed to Nashville in April of ‘07 and over a four day period recorded Four Cups of Coffee. The CD was produced by Peter Huttlinger, one of Nashville’s most sought after guitar players and producers. Each track on Four Cups of Coffee is a musical feast. There is a tribute to Elmore James and Robert Johnson with the track “Dust My Broom.” The title track “Four Cups of Coffee” shows the old Chicago blues influence on Seamus’ playing. After hearing the track “What’s Goin On,” you will understand why Seamus was referred to in his native Galway as “The long haired weirdo who could make the guitar talk.” From the emotional opening song “My Friend Ben” to the haunting “Madame” you will find yourself wanting Seamus to get to work on his second solo record. |
