    Hi all,

    Could anyone suggest any bands that do instrumental trad rock? (i.e. trad with bass, drums, etc)

    Saw a band on grafton street last week doing this and thought it was amazing, would love a cd of this kind of stuff.

    The Rye. They might have been the band you saw!

    Go across the pond and the two obvious ones are Flogging Molly and Dropkick Murphys.

    Hey,

    Thanks a mill for the recomendations.

    I'm looking for something more instrumental.

    The lads I saw were just playing trad music, but had a bass, acoustic drums, fiddle, flute, etc.

    It's kind of like this stuff that I'm looking for:
