Gaelic Storm
Gaelic Storm is a Celtic band. Their musical output includes pieces from traditional Irish music, Scottish music, and original tunes in both the Celtic and Celtic rock genres. Their most recent album, "Matching Sweaters", was released July 24, 2015.
History
Gaelic Storm's origins can be traced back to 1996, when Patrick Murphy and Steve Wehmeyer joined with Steve Twigger and Uillean piper Brian Walsh to perform at O'Brien's Irish Pub and Restaurant in Santa Monica, California, of which Murphy was the manager. This led to a number of pub performances for the next year.
In 1997, Gaelic Storm appeared in the film Titanic as the steerage band, performing "An Irish Party in Third Class". This appearance catapulted them into the touring scene; their performances were met with critical praise and popularity. They have toured throughout the United States and Canada, in the United Kingdom, France and Japan.
Gaelic Storm continues to tour aggressively, playing over 125 days year. The group has released eight albums since its inception, including the compilation album Special Reserve. The band is known for their energetic renditions of traditional Irish music and Scottish traditional music, and for their albums which consistently top the Billboard world music charts.

Track listing
Hills of Connemara is the song that is most recognizable as the song that Rose and Jack dance to in the movie Titanic. Gaelic Storm is the actual band playing on the "ship" and can be seen if you pay close attention. Bonnie Ship the Diamond has a jam at the end typical of ceilidh type Irish music and is the only song sung by the guitar player. The Farmer's Frolic, The Storm (the only original composition on the CD), Sight of Land, Sammy's Fancy and The Road to Liskeard are instrumentals on the CD. The music in Sight of Land is fitting for the title the band has chosen to play the pieces. The end of the song brings to mind the jumping for joy excitement immigrants must have felt when pulling into the harbor in NYC. "Johnny Jump Up" is a typical rousing pub sing-along. "Tell "Me Ma" and "Rocky Road to Dublin" are recognizable standard. "The Leaving of Liverpool" is another sing-along. "Whup Jamboree" is the only song sung by the bodhran player and has an amusing racy line. The others are sung by the spoons/accordion player.

Rag And Bone
by: Gaelic StormRag and Bone, I'm picking up the Tin Can
Pulling it all in a donkey wagon
Rag and Bone, I'm coming down the street
Comin' round here 'Bout every other week
This place is paved, Picking up the rubbish
Everybody throws away
He's out there in the sunshine, Rain or gloomy day
Recyclin' the broken and the bent
The used up and the spent
A three legged chair, a washing machine
A bicycle wheel and a toilet lid
A rusty bed, a wooden box
A mattress spring and a ping pong table
Metal Pipes, a Tennis racket
A pair of shoes and a motorcycle helmet
Football boots, a Christmas Tree
A red wheel barrow and a frying pan
Rag and Bone, I'm picking up the Tin Can
Pulling it all in a donkey wagon
Rag and Bone, I'm coming down the street
Comin' round here 'Bout every other week
This place is paved, Picking up the rubbish
Everybody throws away
He's out there in the sunshine, Rain or gloomy day
Recyclin' the broken and the bent
The used up and the spent
A picture frame, a wedding dress
Fireplace and a steering wheel
Nuts and bolts, Knives and forks
A broken basket and a rolling pin
A bag of golf clubs, orange cone
A mandolin and some chain link fence
And a pile of bricks, a watering can
Three flower pots and a fireman's hat
Rag and Bone, I'm picking up the Tin Can
Pulling it all in a donkey wagon
Rag and Bone, I'm coming down the street
Comin' round here 'Bout every other week
Rag and Bone, I'm picking up the Tin Can
Pulling it all in a donkey wagon
Rag and Bone, I'm coming down the street
Comin' round here 'Bout every other week
Any old, Any old Mickey Mouse hat, Radiator cap
An Elvis Presley velour painting
Shirts and trousers, a pair of insoles
Stockings and socks and a twisted trombone
Paisley parasol, purple lampshade
Useless telephone, coats and jumpers
Slingshots, bottle tops, slammers and pogs
A coffee table and a Pepsi crate
Rag and Bone, I'm picking up the Tin Can
Pulling it all in a donkey wagon
Rag and Bone, I'm coming down the street
Comin' round here 'Bout every other week
Rag and Bone, I'm picking up the Tin Can
Pulling it all in a donkey wagon
Rag and Bone, I'm coming down the street

'Bout every other week
'Bout every other week
'Bout every other week
