Teada
I friend of mine just gave me a recording of Teada, an irish band I've never heard of. I'm listening to the CD now, and it seems pretty good. I'm just wondering, has anyone else heard of Teada?

Re: Teada
Yeah, they played in the Twin Cities a couple of years back, I think it was. Didn't catch the act, but I consistently heard two things: they were impressive, and too young to be legal. Last I heard, they'd broken up, then maybe re-formed, then broken up, then...PallasAthena wrote:I friend of mine just gave me a recording of Teada, an irish band I've never heard of.

Teada
When in Ireland at the end of April, I read that there was a new live DVD about to be released, but haven't heard anything about it since. Best Irish band I've heard in years. They have 2 CDs out, and I'd recommend both.

Re: Teada
They certainly still have a very full touring schedule for the rest of this year...Nanohedron wrote:Last I heard, they'd broken up, then maybe re-formed, then broken up, then...

I have both of their old albums and I like them a lot. They just released another and I expect it to be pretty good. Listening to the clips of the new album it sounds very Dervish like, even more Dervish like than the other albums.
They never broke up, but the old Guitar and Flute player (John Blake) quit and they were joined by Paul Finn on Button Accordion on the second album. They now have Damien Stenson on Flute and the Zouk player, Sean McElwain, doing double duty.
I was going to see them in December, but there was some pretty bad freezing rain that night.

I saw them last fall and liked them a lot. Great playing; it'll be fun to see if they start pushing the arrangements out a little farther -- what I heard was dished up well, but fairly straight-ahead traditional (nothing wrong with that, of course, but you always wonder what's next). And they do look like babies ... <sigh> Finally, yup. Damien Stenson packs a real wallop!

They opened for bohola when I saw them, and during bohola's act they came into the auditorium and stood right behind us (we had back row seats), and they were silly--I almost felt I should *shush* them, as I would my daughter and her teenage friends, but their music had just really transported me, so....yes, they are really young.Cathy Wilde wrote: And they do look like babies ... <sigh>

Hey, how's bohola doing? I was lucky to sit at Jimmy & Pat's feet at a session in East Durham this year, but was too shy to ask what was up with the band lately. Pat was in St. Louis this year and there was talk of he and Ged Foley and a couple of other folks getting together; they played wonderfully at the tutors' concert. I know Sean Cleland is out teaching now ... Anyway, I've really enjoyed bohola's music over the years, and hope they'll keep at it.
