I just got word from Mickey Spain that the Makem & Spain Brothers are heading to Texas in November. On November 5th and 6th, they'll be at the Austin Celtic Festival. They are performing alongside Frankie Gavin, Ed Miller, Doc Grauzer, and The Tea Merchants.
Then on Monday the 7th, they're heading up to Poor David's Pub in Dallas. I haven't seen them perform yet, but the latest album… Wow! It's fantastic. They keep Tommy Makem (the Makem's father) & The Clancy Brothers music alive. Beautiful harmonies, excellent songwriting, and a ton of fun. Don't miss 'em!
Oh! And tell 'em I said, “Hi!”
