MojoKelt: News

MojoKelt has just been confirmed for the Grillon festival ten-year anniversary. The band is delighted as the festival chose their favourite acts from the last ten years to invite back and they enjoyed themselves very much the last time they were over.

MojoKelt got the nod over several more famous Irish and European artists, which is quite a boost for he Band's egos!

We have added a quick video from the recent gig at "In The Shade" Studios to give you a flavour of the event. Unfortunately, due to technical difficulties we have only this short piece of footage and the sound is a bit raw as it is taken from the camera's mic.

Still, it shows what the band sounds like live, so enjoy!

The song is "The Tear that Stains your Face". Written by Tom, the band will include it on their forthcoming album, but for now it is available on the UNIFEM charity album.

Why not take a few minutes to search out the new stuff we've added on the photos page and the music page?

MojoKelt would like to thank everyone who turned out to support the "Hope for Haiti" benefit on Saturday night past. The band played well and all the bands entertained the audience for the full evening. Lots of money was donated but as yet, we have no final figure!

Mojo K.

MojoKelt will be playing at the "Hope for Haiti" benefit gig at the Millenium Arts Centre in Portadown on February 13th. Doors open at 7.00pm. Please give generously.

We have also been contacted by our good friends in Grillon, France, so there is a chance that MojoKelt may be paying them a return visit in March! The band had such a great time two years ago that they are delighted at the possibility of going back!

We should have news soon about a possible trip to America - keep your fingers crossed!

We should point out that we haven't put any gigs on the site for a while because we're trying to figure outthe best way to post the same information in several places at once - yes we're that lazy! Hopefully we will update that part of the site soon.

Happy holidays to everyone! We hope you're all wrapped up warm and cosy!

In this extreme weather, why not spend a few minutes looking at our YouTube page, where you'll find some videos of the Mojos in action!

As always, we will have more news soon!

Mojo K.

Mojokelt would like to thank everyone for the great time we had on the 17th!

We should definitely get out more! Seriously, we had such a great time and even though the technical issues with the video and recording mean there'll be no video from this gig, we had an amazing time!

We will be doing the web cast early next year so we'll kep you all updated!

Thank you!

Mojo K.

Ok, so technology has beaten us this time! The gig won't be webcast this time but we do promise to do something in the new year - probably in May, or so.

There will be a song or two from the gig on the 17th on YouTube very soon after the gig so even if you can't be there you will be able to see some of what went on!

We would also like to thank our listeners on Rhapsody for their support:


We just have to figure out how to split the $0.01 four ways! Joking! We're just glad people are listening!

Mojo K.

Get your browsers ready because in December MojoKelt will be webcasting a "Live in the Studio" recording session from In The Shade Studios!

We will have more details very soon and will give exact instructions as to how to view the concert. There will be three ways to view the concert from anywhere in the world and it will be available online for a few weeks afterwards so no-one should miss out.

If you want to see the other In The Shade Studios gigs go to www.youtube.com/intheshademedia or live.inheshademedia.com.

Hope to see you there!

Mojo K.

The band has been busy putting together a few new videos with a view to having them on the site in the next few weeks - these things always seem to take a lot longer than planned!

The guys have also been busy with individual projects, including Tom's appearance at the Belfast Mela in front of 20,000 people. Playing a version of "She Wore Black" amongst others, he made sure to remind everyone that the "Live at the Grange" CD is still available and selling well! See the links to iTunes and CD Baby on this site to get your very own copy!

We're looking forward to playing the Fiddler's Green Festival again this year.

Hopefully the weather will be kind to us.... !

Mojo K.

Well, the band is back from Oslo and looking forward to a summer of gigs, music and recording!

The band met some amazing people in Oslo this time, as always, but we would like to say thanks to Eri Klass and Aleksandrs Antonenko for their kind words about the band - especially as they had just finished a four-hour performance at the Olso Opera House!

The band will be playing at the Magheralin Music Festival on June 6th.

More news and updates soon!

Mojokelt are playing in the Courthouse Bar, Lurgan on Monday 16th March before more studio work and a trip to Norway at the beginning of May.

More details soon!

After a good rest over the Christmas and new year, the Mojos are back in business with new videos and music coming soon!

We have footage of last year's UNIFEM theatre gig to upload and with a bit of work we should have two or three new pieces of music for you to hear, including (we hope) Adrian on the Harp playing "Elenor Plunkett."

More soon!

Mojo K.

Apologies for the slow update to the site, but the band members have been flat out at various activities, plus spending time in the studio working on new material.

We hope to have some of he video for you soon along with a rough version of one of the songs to appear on the new album! (Fingers crossed!)

Mojo K.

Many thanks to everyone who was at the Courtyard theatre for the amazing reception.

All the Mojos had an amazing day and would like to extend their thanks to Inge and Nader for their invitation to be a part of such a professional show, Marianne for keeping us on our toes and David who took over on the sound desk at very late notice!

We'll have some video and pictures of the event very soon!

MojoKelt was on the radio again yesterday when Tom was interviewed by Candy Divine on Downtown radio.

Candy and Tom talked for some time before Candy played the new MojoKelt recording, "The Tear That Stains Your Face."

We'll have a recording as soon as (if) we can get our hands on it!

Mojo K.

MojoKelt have been contacted by Tim Norman writer/ director of "Beantown" an independent feature film about Irish gangsters and asked to supply music for the production's soundtrack.

Tim said "I'm beginning to work on the soundtrack and as a huge fan of Celtic rock I decided to approach your band, which I found through Myspace and really enjoy listening to."

MojoKelt are, as you would imagine, very excited by this news and will be dispatching some new music as soon as possible to Hollywood.


More on this soon!

UPDATE 2009: As of yet MojoKelt have received no response from the filmmakers to the music sent to them. We have to assume fame and fortune will have to wait a while longer!

Well after several weeks of hard work the first song for the new MojoKelt studio album has been completed.

Entitled "The Tear That Stains Your Face", the song features Tom on vocals and Paul on Whistle. Completed for the UNIFEM UK compilation CD.

This CD can be purchased on the day of the concert, 4th October, or from the UNIFEM UK website.
We'll have video of some of the recording soon!

Mojo K.

Well, the guys were in he studio last weekend and got the first of many new tracks recorded.

We'll have some video soon to let you see the goings on. Many thanks to John at "In the Shade" for the help and hospitality.

Mojo K.

Our first real change in a while. Let us know what you think!

Mojo K.

The band will be going into the studio in the next week or so to get the first few tracks of the new album recorded.

We'll have video, audio and pictures soon!

Mojo K.

Many thanks to Martin and the gang a the Fiddler's Green festival. And, of course, many thanks to those who stayed to watch MojoKelt in the glorious evening sunshine.

The gig went well and despite a shortened set, was extremely well received.

More news from the Mojos soon!

Mojo K.

Adrian contacted us to let us know that MojoKelt's "Live at the Grange" is being played in Crete's only Irish bar.

"Its strange hearing yourself in 30 degree heat!"

Thanks to Marie for passing the CD on!

Mojo K.

Mojokelt will be appearing at the Fiddler's Green International festival on Sunday July 20th at 6pm.

We hope we'll see you there!

More news soon!
