The likely format is: Side one - numbers mainly self penned by the band, plus standard rock blues or folk numbers arranged in our unique style - "diasporised" - and a bunch of wildly funny (it says here) numbers also from the creative talents of members Chris Dunne and Kevin Chamberlain; Side two (yes, it's a double album!) containing Irish traditional songs and tunes some of which have formed part of our repertoire over the last 16 years but only one of which has been recorded or released previously; and others recorded for the first time. http://www.diasporamusic.org/gigs 010711 Fri.01 July 2011 14:00:00 GMT Come and see us at the Open Mic night at the Rose and Crown ("Eli's") in Huish Episcopi on 28th July, 8pm
