The Fuchsia Band in Cork
Donal has word and some great photos of The Fuchsia Band from a gig in Cork last week. Kansas City may feel like it has adopted Máirtín and the boys, but they really are from Cork.
You’ll also notice that Oisín McDiarmada from Sligo played the same event. Oisín is familiar to Kansas City due to appearances of Téada at two or three KC Irish Fests - depending on how you feel about 2003.
You can see Máirtín next weekend up the road at the Weston Irish Festival, and I know Kansas City and Columbia, Missouri would be delighted to see Téada any time again.

Thanks for the link. The lads played a great gig that day.
