The Frames, The Red Rose Cafe, The Vals, Brendan O’Shea, Stephen Hill, Mic Christopher, and the results of your host finding the sound effects on his Christmas copy of Garage band! Oh what a dark place that is.

With the amount of great music I received to Play on Paddy-Whacked Radio Boston, it is impossible to nail down “The Best” of 2006 in only 6 songs. I can, however, bring you a small sample of some of my favorites. And then do it again on a later podcast.

Don’t forget to check out the radio show when you have a chance. It is archived for 1 full week. All details available at http://pwradio.net or http://myspace.com/pwradio. Here you will also find information on a whole whack of Irish indie artist.

Episode 1: Here Goes Nothing. (Mike Bartlett and Simon Goode) [ 21:17 ] Play Now | Play in Popup | Download (7235)

Mike Bartlett and Simon Goode venue technicians and back-line concert musicians, emerge from the shadows and take their talents to the stage and the recording studio. The result is a series of excellent songs.

In this podcast you will hear Mike and Simon’s music, as well as conversations with Glen Hansard, Damien Dempsey, and both Mike and Simon. You’ll also have a quick glimpse into Simons previous work with the Mary Janes.
As of this posting, much of Mike’s music is available for free download at http://myspace.com/mikebartlettmusic.

The supplemental is an optional download (not automatic rss). This extremely rough assembly has expanded interviews with Glen and Damien, conversation with Mike about the songs on his debut EP, Uppers and Downers, the complete version of Simple Times by the Mary Janes (Simon on guitar), and additional songs by Mike Bartlett.
