Trinity River Whalers
Live band review
18/2/2009, Liz Patton
Since live performances are an historically important part of Celtic music, We’ve decided to add live band reviews to the Web site.
They’re good to listen to for a while, but not for hours and hours. What they play is good, so I’d watch them again.

It’s a Green Thing
The North Texas Irish Festival
3/5/2008, Liz Patton
Dallas, Texas - On the first of March some brave individuals dared the downtown Dallas traffic to find an island of green amongst the Fair Park construction – the North Texas Irish Festival.
As a Celtic bassist I couldn’t resist the opportunity to sample the talents and styles currently on the Celtic festival circuit. The festival, presented by the Southwest Celtic Music Association,
is one of the largest Celtic music festivals in Texas and its neighboring states, with a 26 year history of
featuring the best of international, national, and local Celtic musicians the group can afford to bring in.
