Brendan O' Loughlin's music refuses to be categorized. It features jigs, pub songs, country, and a bit of rock" Normally, in works that feature this much diversity, it retains a cohesive feel throughout the work, and maintains that quality the whole way through..He's really breaking ground of his own design. Not only does he break ground, he seems to be digging in more than just one place. "Between Two Shores" features songs that are inspired and hybridized from things like pub songs and jigs, but also a few that have country influences and rock 'n' roll beats

New CD Between Two Shores is now Available

This compilation includes sixteen original songs, all written performed and produced by Brendan. Special thanks and appreciation to some prominent studio musicians. Bob Henke, (Dr. Hook / Glen Campbell) Guitars, Music & Vocal Arrangements. Ron Rutowski, (Glen Campbell) Fiddle, Banjo, Mandolin. Jonathan Yudkin (Kathy Mattea) Guitars, Mandolin, Nashville Production, and Ron Livingston Keyboards/Piano.


This is an eclectic slice of Celtic music--a potpourri of flute,whistle, guitar, fiddle, pipes, drums and vocals, ""Cry for Unity,"" with a touch of electric guitar, is a slow-paced plea for an end to the sectarian violence in Northern Ireland. ""Gallant Band"" praises the patriots who made it possible for Ireland to become a free nation, while a la similarly states it is time for all to experience peace, freedom and liberty. ""Step Together"" is an expatriate's remembrance of the small things that go a long way in forming community in rural Ireland while ""I Want to Come Back"" portrays the importance of and need to hold on to memories. ""Here Comes the Night continues the theme of the warmth of distant but pleasant memories. The fiddle and percussion-backed ""Life of the Party,"" jauntily detailing a road trip through the west of Ireland, has a catchy, pleasing rhythm. Nashville sounding ""Bonfires,"" fueled by harmonica backing, with percussion and electric guitar touches, solidly captures the revelry of a 'fest in May' party.
