Trash-pop, guitar rock and melodic miscellany.
Not so much a band as a bloke with a guitar and a laptop, The Smivets deliver a genre-bending blend of pop, rock, punk, prog and many other monosyllables.

Story behind the song
A little rushed this, so not brilliant. Anyway, wishing you all a grand Paddy's Day all right.

I just have to agree with all the other comments Steve. The drums (Bodhran ?) is (are) spectacular and do draw you in. The percussion and wonderful guitar propel this 'jaunty' yet 'meloncholy' tune along to the coast where maybe it will leave it's native shores for new adventures in New York ? This tune you see, seems to tell a story. How wonderful is that for something that you 'rushed' ? Brilliant . . .again. :)
This is a great job, Seth!!!!! You described the song as "a little rushed" - but that does not come through in the quality of the song at all. Your playing is outstanding, and the Celtic melody is so happy - it makes me proud to be half Irish (also proud of the English half as well - ha - it tempers my temper - lol). The ending of your outstanding song also is just right - and leaves one with a feeling that there is hope and joy still ahead. And, so, thank you for this song and for the download.
