Amble is a three piece ensemble from Ireland playing gorgeous pieces of folk music, with Mary’s Pub being their latest release.
By Jane Howkins
Mary’s Pub is a contemporary folk song, characterised by the beautiful acoustic guitar melodies that run through the piece, fingerpicked in gorgeous style. The vocals suit the music well, singing with great passion with a slight Irish drawl. Despite having a modern folk sound, the lyrics are traditional balladry in action, telling a tale about two strangers falling in love in a pub on Grafton Street in December. It’s absolutely haunting to behold, so make sure you don’t miss out on Amble!
