It was about time to update the selection of songs and release another volume of "Newfoundland Drinking Songs" for a new generation of fans. Many of our drinking songs are Irish and Scottish songs that have become perennial favourites in Newfoundland and Labrador.. On this CD we have put together a rousing selection of songs that you might hear on a night out at your favourite pub. This CD features many top Newfoundland artists including Shanneyganock, The Irish Descendants, Chris Hennessy, The Celtic Connection, Fine Crowd, The Government Rams, Chris Andrews & Mark Hiscock, Kilkenny Krew, Muldow, The Clancey's, as well as newcomers Napper Tandy. So get together with a few of your best friends, grab a pint of your favourite brew, crank up the CD player and sing along with "Newfoundland Drinking Songs"!!
