"Galway based, Lucas
are Alan Gray (vocals/guitar); Howard Evans (guitar); Paddy Flynn (bass) and
Ray Butler (drums). Formed in 2000 they soon recorded their debut single
"Little Devil" with ex Radiators man "Pete Holidai".
Things really began to happen for them in 2003 when they travelled to New
York and started gigging in legendary venues 'Sin-E', 'Arlene's Grocery' and
'The Bitter End' amongst others. During this time playwright Jessamyn Fiore
was putting together "The Mysterious World Of birds" featuring Lisa Hannigan
(from Damien Rice's group) with Lucas performing the soundtrack.
Fiore approached Rob Fraboni to produce the soundtrack with Lisa Hannigan on
backing vocals. Fraboni was so impressed with the music by Lucas that he
offered to record an album with them later that summer."

10. Gelo No Montana feat. Trey Anastasio
Amazon.com: "Possibilities, by jazz piano/keyboard legend Herbie
Hancock, with songs by Stevie Wonder, Paul Simon, and Leon Russell, is a
multigenerational masterpiece. Rock's "it boy" John Mayer leads off the CD
with the spare, bouncy opener, "Stitched Up." Brit-born soul girl Joss Stone
and bluesman Jonny Lang get down on the gutbucket "When Love Comes to Town."
Christina Aguilera’s excellent vocals illuminate "A Song for You." Not to be
outdone, Annie Lennox delivers an operatic take on Holly Cole’s "Hush, Hush,
Hush," while Sting's "Sister Moon" swings with stealthy syncopations.
Santana and the Beninese singer Angelique Kidjo provide the world flavor on
"Safiotou," and the dreamy "Gelo No Montana," with ex-Phish guitarist Trey
Anastasio, is the lone instrumental. Hancock’s tight solos and intelligent
orchestral synths radiate all of the tracks. Like Frank Sinatra’s Duets and
Ray Charles’s Genius Loves Company, Possibilities introduces Hancock to a
new and awestruck generation." --Eugene Holley, Jr.

and vocalist, Norwegian violin player Marja Tuhkanen and French cellist
player Bertrand Galen.
"Glen Hansard has teamed up with
Czech
singer and pianist Markéta Irglová to make his new solo album on plateau
records. The album was recorded and mixed over a 6 day session in Prague in
December 2005."
RMG:
"Glen Hansard, front man with The Frames, has announced the release of a
collaborative album with Czech singer and pianist Markéta Irglová.
Accompanying the release he has also announced an Irish tour featuring
Piano, Cello and Fiddle. After 18 months of constant touring with The
Frames, Glen started 2006 by throwing himself into the making of a movie
with original Frames bass player John Carney - appropriately enough Glen
plays the part of a busker in the movie. Aside from the collaborative album
and the movie, Glen will be writing and recording a new album with The
Frames in 2006 which is pencilled in for release in September 2006. All of
The Frames’ albums to date have achieved Double Platinum status. The band’s
live album, Set List, has now gone four times Platinum!"
