Free Music Notes for The Sligo Indians

Free Music Review: Master of the Sligo Style
Hit: 5 Stars

Tony DeMarco's playing has a paradoxical twist---there's an almost ethereal delicacy layered over an authoritative, melodic drive. The result is exciting and incredible playing that you won't mistake for anyone else's. Though Tony---a Brooklynite of Italian-Irish heritage---synthesizes all kinds of influences in his music (including bluegrass and jazz), the end result is pure Irish fiddle music in the Sligo tradition. It has been far too long a wait for this first solo album by one of Irish music's contemporary greats. But the wait is over and this extraordinary CD is now out there for all to hear.

The Sligo Indians Poster

The Sligo Indians is a long-awaited solo debut for one of America's finest folk fiddlers. A Brooklyn native of mixed Irish and Italian descent, New Yorker Tony DeMarco is a master of the intricate ornamentation, swinging rhythm, and adventurous melodic improvisation that mark the famed County Sligo fiddle style. Mentored by the late Sligo master fiddler Paddy Reynolds, Tony has for decades been a pillar of the Irish session scene in New York City. 54 minutes, 36-page booklet with extensive notes.

With special guests: Eddie Bobe, Kevin Burke, JR Davey, Tom English, Ivan Goff, Natalie Haas, Peter Horan, Charlie Lennon, Seamie O'Dowd, Fionn O'Lochainn, Jerry O'Sullivan, John Patitucci and Seamus Tansey.
