It took just a couple of weeks from the first tracking session to a St. Paddy’s Day release date to complete the first Oran Mor CD. 
Dave Hallowell (vocals, bouzouki, guitar and fiddle) and Pete Hale (vocals, guitar, bouzouki) are regular performers at Portsmouth’s hopping Irish Pub, Ri-Ra. This disc really captures their distinctive, stringy sound, a powerful string engine roaring through the speakers at Mill Pond Music, easily supporting the muscular vocals.
Thanks for breaking in the newly completed ‘Live Room’ at Mill Pond, guys, and confirming that what we’ve set out to do here has become reality: a great room where attention to acoustic detail has created a space for instruments to really sing out!
I heard that sales were pretty good on the big Green Beer Day, and may they continue as you attract more and more listeners to your Monday night shows at Ri-Ra. I’ll be coming in regularly to check on you guys! Hey, who was that on banjo on ‘The Ferryman’?
