notes
Karl Jones is a Sedona, Arizona based artist from Dublin Ireland where he spends part of the year. He has regularly appeared on Irish Television's Late Late show, Dublin music venues and Irish Music Festivals. A founding member of the U2 influenced rock band "Mixed up World" in the 1980's Karl went on to become an accomplished solo artist with the musical spirit of Irish recording artists like Christy Moore, Van Morrison and Paul Brady. His live shows include great original material with traditional Irish Ballads and drinking songs played in a dynamic contemporary Celtic style. He fuses folk, rock and blues with his exceptional skill as a guitarist giving his music an exciting and original sound.
Well established in the Southwest, Karl is a regular fixture of the Phoenix, Northern Arizona and Albuquerque New Mexico music scene's, playing primarily the Irish Pub circuit. He regularly has special guests accompanying him on Fiddle, Mandolin, Bodhran, Bass and Drums. He moonlights playing guitar for "Zosia" an awesome up and coming Californian singer who has a bluesy R'n'b feel reminescent of Jewel, and adds guitar to the studio projects of Washington DC based Electronic Trance group "Delog" fronted by "Jetsunma" formerly of the group Skydancer.

This CD was GREAT! I had not heard of Karl before listening to this release, but I am glad now that I bought this one.

I really enjoyed this CD as well as Karl's comments though out the CD, they were enlightening and very educational and informative. It was nice to hear some of the old time Irish songs like I'll Tell Me Ma, Waxies Dargle, Wild Rover and few others that I haven't heard in awhile. Great CD.
