  1. The Irish rock music invasion keeps on rolling!

    Much like the British Invasion the 1960s and their second invasion the 1980s, 2025 has been a banger year for alternative, indie, garage, and post-punk rock music coming out of the Emerald Isle. This blog author’s favorite news song of the year is“My Favorite Monster” by Cliffords and my choice for best new album of 2025, Altar, was released by NewDad in September.

    Among the rock bands from Ireland that are quickly becoming household names, are the following nine (presented in alphabetical order):

    Cardinals – must listen songs – “Masquerade” and “Barbed Wire”

    What’s really cool is the music isn’t just coming out of Dublin. Its emanating from across Ireland in places like Cork (Cliffords and Cardinals), Galway (NewDad), and Bray (Florence Road) too. Another special aspect about Irish rock is the inclusion of traditional instruments like fiddle, accordion, and trumpet into the music.

    If you get a chance, check these and other terrific Irish bands out online or on your favorite music app.

    Peace!

  2. Too often in rock history, male drummers have received the spotlight. Well, listed below are my favorite women and non-binary drummers of today’s modern rock music. Each musician brings something special to their band from vocals, to lyrics, to other instruments being played, to being the very beating heart of each song as expressed through their drumming. These talented artists represent multiple nations (Canada, Ireland, the UK, and the USA)

    Please consider giving each band a listen and see if you agree with me. Peace and rock on!
