Horslips

Artist: Horslips
LP: Dancehall Sweethearts
Song: "Stars"
[ listen ]

The fiddle figures prominently in the traditional jig-inspired music of this folk-rock band from Ireland. Formed in 1970, Horslips evidently developed a larger following after their 1980 breakup than they'd accumulated during their decade together—a fact that likely figured into their decision to play a few reunion concerts in Belfast and Dublin at the end of 2009. You can read more about Horslips here, and click here to visit their official website, where you'll find additional band info, the Horslips discography, some "horseshit" and lots of neat pictures of the group, who are, in general, a whole lot sexier than Los Freddy's.
