Product Description
CD Description
Few orchestras or musical ensembles can claim a hundred years of history and indeed the Kilfenora has its origins in a village fife and drum band stretching back into the 1870s. Contributing to its uniqueness are its roots in a web of local families who have supplied many of its members over the century. Also unique is the KCB s feat of winning at the Fleadh Cheoil three years running on two occasions 1954-6 and 1993-5. A unique event in music and social history has taken place in County Clare, Ireland, when the centenary will be celebrated of the Kilfenora Ceili Band (KCB) and the launch of the Kilfenora s new CD Century .
About the Artist
The Kilfenora features fiddles, flutes, banjo, and squeezeboxes, with what "Folk Roots" magazine called "one of the tightest rhythm sections in the world". They brewed up an open-air storm in Dublin on the eve of the Millennium. Their huge gig on Stephen's Green in the Irish Capital on St. Patrick's Day has become an annual event. The visual impact of ten musicians exuberantly driving the dancers on is what sets them apart and makes them unique.
