Jeff's ancestors were hedgemasters from Cork, though.

My Irish faves:

The Frames
Emmett Tinley
Mark Geary
Damien Rice
Damiem Dempsey

... in no particular order.

Come on people, you've got to mention Cathy Davy or the guys from mike got spiked.Well you don't have to but it'd be nice...and just as well.

Your other choices are fairly spot on in my opinion though.

Hazy, that's exactly what I was
thinking. After Damien rice, the next musician I think of is van Morrison.I love into the mystic. I feel like if you love Damien's music, you'll love van Morrison.
