CITY SOUNDS: ASLEEP AT THE REEL

Asleep at the Reel is a troupe of highly experienced players with a shared love of Celtic music – with a twist! The band’s repertoire is powered by the deft song writing of Brisbane historian, Mark Cryle, who rose to prominence in the 1990s with Spot the Dog. Cryle’s songs, according to a recent reviewer in Dublin’s Irish Music Magazine, ‘evoke the centres of our Irish world whether it be the pub or the Parish; he has conjured up places where craic and companionship are the glue of life’. Asleep at the Reel invite you into the Australian Irish experience.
