Dubliner Marc Carroll has been ploughing his own furrow for more than 10 years to very little public recognition or commercial acceptance, yet he continues with his perfect distillation of Irish folk idioms within a notably American pop/punk format. Now based in Los Angeles (after an extended period in London), Carroll releases Dust of Rumour on his own label (following some years of being courted and then disowned by various major labels). It is a record of sweet liberty, beautiful melodies and superbly crafted songs that hint at emotional loss and glass-half- empty sentiments, but with a joyous mix of lilting airs and guitar jingle-jangle that tumble from each song. Another great record from a guy who remains one of Ireland’s virtually lost yet truly great songwriters.
