Owlsworld Presents - The Rainbow Girls and Marty O'Reilly 14/07/2014

Very excited to have The Rainbow Girls back at The Cock Inn! and this time they are joined by support act Marty O'Reilly


Biography
Rainbow Girls: Don't be fooled by the floaty dresses and the sunny Californian disposition, The Rainbow Girls will come and rock you by force. Equal parts Ronettes and Stooges, this 'Electric All-Lady Stomp-Folk Grand Band' have honed their raw bluesy-folk-dance craft by busking on the mean streets of absolutely everywhere. The joy that they get from playing is multiplied ten-fold as their sound fills an auditorium, the Rainbow Girls are more than a band - they're an infectious disease that you want to catch! Roots music has never been so much fun.

Seasoned travellers, the Girls have already rocked through Europe and the US couchsurfing, playing music on the streets, staying in art squats and occasionally getting deported for being too much fun. Equally suited to a festival stage or a lively village hall, Rainbow Girls will give you an event to talk about for months afterward. Check 'em out!

Marty O'Reilly & The Old Soul Orchestra: O'Reilly began his musical journey as a blues guitar player, with his ear pressed close to the ancient hiss in the works of Blind Willie Johnson, Mississippi John Hurt, John Lee Hooker, Charlie Patton, and Leadbelly. Through extensive listening and studying of the early delta greats, O'Reilly developed a unique foundation onto which he would incorporate themes from influences in other musical veins such as John Fahey, Nick Drake, John Vandiver, and Tom Waits.


Whether it be his original pieces, or his renditions of old American classics O'Reilly tells his story through an old and soulful voice, propelled by a sense of authentic emotional adrenaline.

Performing with his trio, O'Reilly is backed by Jeff Kissell on the double bass and Chris Lynch on the fiddle. Their versatile musicianship, and soulful chemistry help to expand O'Reilly's songs into pieces that drive like a ten pound hammer, or float like feather and flow seamlessly in-between
