James Keelaghan is making his 7th trip to Australia, touring to promote his latest album, the critically acclaimed House of Cards. 10 new originals, some of them co-written with folk luminaries David Francey, Karine Polwart and Rose Cousins, make it one of his best yet. House of Cards showcases Keelaghan’s great assets, solid guitar playing, a voice unmatched and instantly recognizable, and lyrical excellence.
Keelaghan says “I was at the Celtic Colors Festival in 2008 and the producers locked six of us in a house for a week, and the company included Dave Gunning, David Francey, and Rose Cousins, it was an amazing experience. We had to come up with enough material for a show at the end of it”.
