High Energy Irish Drinking Music!

Murphy and crew are back with a new album of Irish Drinking Songs releasing on St Patricks Weekend (March 16th & 17th 2012) in Fargo and Minneapolis…

Murphy’s Empty Shot - Reunion & CD Release: This has been years in the making! Don’t miss Wookiefoot’s Irish Project - Murphy’s Empty Shot perform St. Patrick’s Weekend 2012. This will be Empty Shot’s 1st show in 4 years and the first place the new CD will be available! To celebrate the release of the new CD “The Halfs and The Half Nots” and the first show of the new season, Murphy’s Empty Shot will be playing 2 St. Patty’s Day shows. Fargo and Minneapolis – get ready to paint the town green!

Why Irish Drinking Songs? The back story:

Murphy’s Empty Shot is a side project of Mark Murphy and other members of Wookiefoot that is heavily inspired by Traditional Irish Drinking songs that Murphy, an Irishman, learned as a kid from his grandfather and father. The project came together after years of Wookiefoot playing St. Patty’s day shows. The mid-March concerts became a tradition not long after Wookiefoot started touring. After the band began traveling to various destinations overseas during the winter, the St Patrick’s day events became a reunion for the band as well as a homecoming celebration. Over the years the band’s set list had so many Irish Drinking Songs and so few of their own they couldn’t rightfully use the name Wookiefoot during the Irish holiday. The project became official when the first M.E.S. album “Tower of Babel Falls“ was released on St. Patrick’s Day in 2007. The sound is complete with bag pipes & Uilleann Pipes (Patrick McCormick), violin, banjo, mandolin, and Bodrahn. Best if listened to with a frosty pint!

This album is beautiful! Love the new sounds mixed with the old renditions. The swingy piano with the guitar gives me this awesome folk country soul feel and really hits home. Satsang hooks are always the catchiest. Keep it coming! Jon Fedorek
