“
Think down home Chicago shuffle, oldtimey vocal sound punctuated genre-bending uilleann pipes on adrenalin and a banshee wailin' dirty kick-ass keyboard lick. U2 move over! The Barry Mc Cabe band is a rockin' and knockin' it down right here on Amie Street. Voted one of the top blues songs by Finland's Backas Jazz Society in 2006, "One of These Days," features Ireland's National Living Treasure, special guest uilleann piper Davey Spillane of Riverdance fame. Irish Blues-Rocker, Barry's debut Celtic Blues fusion album, "The Peace Within" is guaranteed to disturb more than your soul at the crossroads. Fookin' Brilliant!”

Artist: Barry Mc Cabe
“The Emigrant opens the heart chakra and maybe the doors to the Otherworld with a haunting low flute melody that needs no words but flies directly into the soul. It literally gave me goosebumps upon first listen.
Barry Mc Cabe's articulate guitar accompaniment provides a dark harp-like counterpoint to the soaring melody that takes flight like wild geese across a mist shrouded lake.
This track —featuring the far-fabled uillean paper Davey Spillane? of Riverdance fame—is a tribute to Rory Gallagher, Ireland's unsung guitar god. Barry played support at Rory's last gig at The Paradiso in Amsterdam.
The Emigrant, a lament to that Undiscovered Country from which no traveller returns, reminds me of the Chieftains' flute solo in "Mná na h Éireann," Lament for the Women of Ireland (aka Love Theme from Barry Lyndon), and Táimse Im' Chodladh,—guaranteed to linger and haunt the far shores of the mind.
Check out Barry's debut Celtic Blues fusion album, "The Peace Within." Be sure to get Barry's campy blues composition "One Of These Days," voted one of the top blues songs by Finland's Backas Jazz Society in 2006.”

“Barry is fabulous with that classic 60's sound mixed with a bit o' the Celtic. All his songs are good.....excellent instrumentals and a wild harp player. His voice is reminiscent of the guys who started it all”
