2017 was a big year for the Holy Moly & The Crackers: the ever-evolving gypsy-folk-rock band released their new album ‘Salem’ in July 2017 on their own label, Pink Lane Records (in association with Kartel Music Group and Wipe Out Publishing). The album received acclaimed reviews from Clash Magazine, R2 Magazine, Folk Radio UK, God Is In The TV Zine, The Crack, No Depression (U.S.), Blown Speaker (U.S.) to name but a few.
Over the course of the album campaign HMATC toured the UK twice, selling out venues across the country, and made successful debuts in The Netherlands, France, Germany and Italy as well as continuing their success on the festival circuit with performances at Boomtown Fair, Bestival, Camp Bestival, amongst others.
‘Salem’s lead single, the barnstorming indie-rock anthem ‘Cold Comfort Lane’, was included on major Spotify playlists: New Noise, Fresh Finds and #WCE-Woman Crush Everyday. The band also had significant sync success, with ‘Cold Comfort Lane’ used by E4, BT Vision, Capital One and Ultimate Ears.

Shennaghys Jiu festival are excited to return to the Centenary Centre for the 2018 Celtic Music Showcase, this year featuring TRIP, Birlinn Jiarg, The Lawrences and Scran.
Glasgow based TRIP are a dynamic trad band drawing influence from the cultures and traditions of Scotland, England, Ireland and the Isle of Man. They produce a powerful, driven and distinctive sound that contrasts from lively jigs and reels to captivating traditional Gaelic song.
Birlinn Jiarg perform traditional Manx music alongside contemporary compositions . The sound is based around the unusual combination of the low whistle and clarinet of Beccy Hurst and Freya Rae ( Tom Kitching Band), accompanied by Scottish guitarist and bouzouki player Alasdair Paul (Pons Aelius, Kimber/Paul) and bodhránist Callum Younger (Pons Aelius, Trio FCT).
The Lawrence’s play a mixture of traditional and contemporary Manx tunes, many composed by Katie, and their aim is to create arrangements where the pure beauty of the tunes is able to shine.
Scran are a group of 8 talented young Manx musicians who formed following participation in the Bree workshops and are now mentored by Paul Rodgers.
Oli Wilson-Dickson – fiddle
Dylan Fowler – guitar
Jamie Smith – accordion
ALAW combines the craftsmanship of three leading musicians who bring a wealth of experience to a shared passion – the traditional music of Wales. Whether unearthing rare gems or reimagining a well loved melody they treat their music with a deftness and sensitivity that is thoroughly absorbing. Combined with powerful song writing and original tunes, this makes for a musical experience that will stay with the listener long after the concert has ended.
Oli and Jamie will be well known to Manx audiences through their performances with Jamie Smith’s Mabon. Between the three of them they have performed with Richard Thompson, Barrule, The Devil’s Violin, Ian McMillan and more. From stirring songs to driving jigs – they communicate their music with relaxed humour and a genuine affection that is truly infectious.

Widely regarded as one of Europe’s finest ever soul/blues fuelled voices, JO HARMAN remains a genre-defying, independently minded artist of rare credibility, who makes sincere and heartfelt music, often compared to that of the ‘golden age of music’.
Jo recently released her second studio album ‘People We Album’ to much critical acclaim (see accolades at foot of the page) and no little commercial success. Indeed the ‘lead single’, ‘When We Were Young’ (featuring Michael McDonald) achieved BBC Radio 2 play-listing, as well as play listing on other mainstream national stations across Ireland (RTE1) and Europe. The album has also made various ‘best of’ lists for 2017.
A multi award winning/nominated performer, Jo has achieved considerable success at home and abroad, headlining prestigious venues and festivals throughout Europe, North America and beyond, including playing as one of eleven (otherwise household name) artists to 300k people at Parkpop, in the Hague. Amongst many other career highlights in her relatively short career, Jo was also invited by Amnesty International to perform at their prestigious ‘Ambassador of Conscience’ Award in Berlin alongside the likes of Patti Smith and Joan Baez,
Jo has indeed recently been asked to guest on Motown Songwriting legend Lamont Dozier’s ‘Reimagination’ album – alongside other legendary guests such as Gregory Porter and Sir Cliff Richard- and, in fact, she duets with Lamont on the lead single ‘Reach Out, I’ll Be There’. She’ll be touring Japan with Lamont as part of that project, as well as featuring on his prestigious UK tour.

Come hear why Rag ‘N Bone took to social media to proclaim Jo as ‘one of this country’s finest talents’ and why soul super star Michael McDonald advised ‘hearing her cover one of my songs was a spiritual experience’.
The show will be a full band performance comprising Jo’s world class musicians (with CV’s to match) on guitar, keyboards, bass and drums, in addition to Jo herself on lead vocals (and stories!).
