Irish Rover And The Crew

Paddy punk rock music led by Irish Rover, lead singer & lyricist. www.irishrover.org

IRISH ROVER AND THE CREW :: READ THE STORY BEHIND THE NAME www.irishrover.org IRISH ROVER AND THE CREW has been founded in 2005. by IRISH ROVER, known to many as OIroishRover, art. Rover MacGowan MacChroi, Paddy Punk Rocker, Lead Singer & Lyricist, a Victim Of Geography, still held against own free will in 3rd world of Europe, serbia, belgrade, with human rights down in the mud, awaiting freedom & move towards the Republic Of Ireland. IRISH ROVER AND THE CREW stands as a true OI, essence genuine Irish punk rock performance, strongly individual furious expression of Irish Rover's, influenced by the greatest Irish punk rocker of all times, Shane MacGowan and his outstanding work both with The Pogues and The Popes. IRISH ROVER AND THE CREW stands as a furious devotion, essence & attitude expression with no poseurs within'. The very name is inspired by an Irish trad. song Irish Rover, bestly performed by The Pogues & The Dubliners. Sadly, with complete lack of Irish people and Irish musicians, punk rockers in this part of the world, which is the 3rd world of Europe, this story suffered from the starts. No genuine Crew for Irish Rover and The Crew. Numerous but ultimately wrong choices as candidates for The Crew that were and are the only available for this part of the world, led to underperformance, lack of live performance, recordings and above all lack of genuine Irish touch, Paddy essence & attitude, the magic that is a must and exists within' all em' grand rockin' Irish bands in the world. So, moving the story to where it belongs, goin' west, Ireland, where true Paddies, where punk rock truly exists, that is the only way for Irish Rover and The Crew to really happen in essence terms. By then, no compromise with the essence ! The work is currently a solo one, just Irish Rover, doin' both vocals & guitar, also workin' long-distance collaborations with Irish musicians & punk rock bands from worldwide. Only the furious Paddy punk rock Crew can live the story together with Irish Rover, and bring the real sounds to friends and essence audience. Hopefuly, 2009. will be a turning point and Irish Rover will be rockin' with The Crew, where em' streams of whiskey are flowing. Them chains must fall first.

Lyrics

Come To The Bower
Trad. Arr./Shane MacGowan

Will you come to the Bower
Over the free boundless ocean
Where the stupendous waves
roll in thundering motion
Where mermaids are seen
And the fierce tempest gather
To love Erin the green
The dear land of our fathers
Will you come, will you, will you,
will you come to the Bower

Will you come to the land
of O'Neill and O'Donnell
Lord Lucan of old
and immortal O'Connell
Where Brian chased the Danes
and St. Patrick the vermin
And whose valleys remain still
most beautiful and charming
Will you come, will you, will you,
will you come to the Bower

You can see Dublin City
and the fine groves of Blarney
The Bann, The Boyne,
The Liffey and the lakes of Lillarney
You can ride on the tide
over the broad majestic Shannon
You can sail round Lough Neagh
and see storied Dungannon
Will you come, will you,
will you come to the Bower?

Will you come and awake
our dear land from ist's slumber
And her fetters we we'll break links
that long are encumbered
And the air will resound
with Hosannas to greet you
On the shores will be found
gallant Irishmen to meet you
Will you come, will you, will you,
will you come to the bower
