VIDEO - CREEDS CROSS "The Irish Band"

Creeds Cross are Bart Foley and Denis Dowling Flying the flag for Cork, Dublin and Kildare New album "Gods & Fighting men" is released March 3rd 2014.

Gods & Fighting Men", the new album by Creeds Cross out March 3rd 2014

The album features an all star line up of musicians including Pete Jupp (FM) Drums, Bob Skeat (Wishbone Ash) Bass, Pat McManus (Mamas Boys and Celtus) Fiddle, and Brian Kelly (Shane McGowan) on Banjo.

Paddyrock takes on a new twist with this guitar driven traditionally influenced release. It’s a journey from mayhem to melancholy, stopping at every pub in between!

Written and Produced by Bart Foley, who’s background as a songwriter and a session player has seen him signed to some of the biggest music labels in the business, including Rondor Music and Peer Music International.

Regular trips to the songwriting capital of the US, Nashville, meant that he would learn about song crafting from some of the best writers in the world

Bart Foley was born in Co Cork, but grew up in Dublin and met guitarist, Denis Dowling, a Co Kildare native on the busy London music circuit. The spark for a different Irish rock album was born and "Gods & Fighting Men" is the result.

Drawing on inspiration from memories of growing up in Ireland and the rich and varied tapestry of Irish music, the songs are both autobiographical and fictional at the same time. With influences from the great Irish rock bands like Thin Lizzy and the Horslips and the more traditional Moving Hearts and Stocktons Wing, Creeds Cross have, in making the album "Gods & Fighting Men", created a new niche and genre of music.
