In the course of a widely celebrated thirty-year career, the sound of seminal London-Irish band The Pogues launched a generation of rowdy and explosive Celtic-Punk bands. James Fearnley, co-founder and long-time accordion player in that legendary group, has now teamed with two of its most notable devotees, Flogging Molly co-founder and Grammy Award-winning producer Ted Hutt and Dropkick Murphys' multi-instrumentalist Marc Orrell, forming The Walker Roaders whose music splices anthems of Celtic-Punk with the exalted poetry of The Pogues. Named for a menacing street gang known to Fearnley as a youth in Manchester, their self-titled debut full length will be released August 23 via Ginger ManBeverly Martel label group.
On September 20 Monster Rally, the musical project of Cleveland based visual artist Ted Feighan, will release Adventures on the Floating Island on Gold Robot Records (pre-order).This week Monster Rally shared two tracks from the forthcoming release, 'Menagerie' and 'Ginger on the Wind' featuring Mira Cook. About the songs Ted Feighan says, ''Menagerie' acts as the jazzy opening credits to the newest Monster Rally album. Inspired by the swinging smooth horns of 70s club jazz, the track explores a more upbeat and funky direction. The vocal edit of 'Ginger on the Wind', which appears on the LP in instrumental form, is a collaboration between Monster Rally and label-mate Mira Cook. The beat is imagined to have been created by a hawaiian slide guitarist and soul drummer after hours in an empty night club.'

Despite the valiant efforts of the cast, a strikingly handsome set, and beautiful costumes, PRIVATE LIVES will not be (pardon the pun) everyone's cup of tea. The material is dated and generally appeals most to an older audience segment and those who long for the days of Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers (not that there is anything wrong with that). To be clear and fair, many audience members at the charming Dorset Playhouse where this production of PRIVATE LIVES continues through July 6th enjoyed the presentation thoroughly.
