Mardi Gras: a musical journey that originated in Rome, Italy. A warm welcome in Dublin that provided the impetus to tour Italy as an acoustic duo, and thence the band, the CD “Drops Made”, the full-formation tour with drums and bass, the attention of the radio and the media who see in the group echoes of Dave Mathews, Polly Palusma, Cat Power and 70s rock, and then the return to Ireland, the group’s adoptive home, welcoming them once again with the “Irish Drops Tour”: five concerts including Whelans, the cradle of world rock.
