No Crows is an awesome foursome of fine musicians based in
Sligo, Ireland. Felip Carbonell is a magnificent Mallorcan
guitarist and his Flamenco/Manouche-style guitar provides the
engine for No Crows exciting and stylish music. Steve Wickham
of 'The Waterboys' is the violinist and his energetic style
and repertoire adds spice to the quartet. Anna Houston's
Swiss/Celtic roots are apparent in her intricate and soulful
playing of the Cello and Mandolin. Eddie Lee provides the hot
grooves on his double bass. Their repertoire is truly global
as their music ranges from Irish traditional to classical and
gypsy swing as well as folk tunes from China, Finland,
Moldova, Russia, Venezuela, Greece and beyond. No Crows
recorded their debut CD September 2006 live at the Strand Bar
in Strandhill, Co Sligo, adding a couple of tracks at Swiss
Producer Urs Lanz's Doolittle recording studios in Co. Sligo.
NoCrows recorded most of the album live in order to capture
the essence and spontaneity of their live performances and the
band has already won many fans on Irish airwaves within days
of the CD's release.
