The Bodeans, only one album that I used to own. They opened for very first U2 Joshua Tree tour I got to go to, WOW! Was that a GREAT concert!!! They, I believe, are Irish as well, REM type of sound, they were EXCELLENT!! Cannot find their CD album I bought, but they were VERY GOOD!! Also, I bet you guys haven’t heard of the Coor’s. Another Irish band, three sisters, one brother. The drummer, Caroline, was a SMOKE’N HOTTIE!!! And was an EXCELLENT drummer!!! They did an album with covers sung with: Bono, from U2, Mick Fleetwood, on the drums with Caroline (TOO COOL!), and lastly, Ronnie Woods of The Rolling Stones, AWESOME album, A+ SONICS!!! Some of the Bono songs were acoustic. AWESOME album! Pop-rock band. Still love them. Sharon Corr is SMOKE’N HOT as well!! Model quality, stunning woman! So talented!! Hell, all of them were! Caroline, the sexy baby sister, played: drums, piano, and the bodran, an Irish drum, One one of their albums, Sharon and Caroline do an acoustic duet, “No Frontiers”, sounds like two angels singing, no joke! Check them out on YouTube! Especially the MTV “Unplugged” album, and the live album. BRAVO to whoever mic’ed and mixed their live/Unplugged albums! AWESOME acoustics/sonics!! |
BoDeans are indeed from Wisconsin. Great band. Kind of an Americana-ish rock band, with Midwestern influences similar to Jayhawks, Bottle Rockets and Rainmakers (all brilliant bands). If you like BoDeans, check out their live album - "Joe Dirt Car". Contains all their best material and the live versions are superior to the studio versions, across the board.... All IMHO, of course. |
