I Can't Promise But I'll Try © Barry Kehoe
A new song from our forthcoming Album that we are recording in Ventry Studios in Balbriggan. We played this live version in the Cobblestone earlier this year.
Sweet hearts by Barry Kehoe © 2016
Another new song from our forthcoming album. A song of love, longing and romantic dreams. This is a rehearsal recording of an original song called Sweethearts first performed by Honeybear (Lucie and Barry) in the Terenure Sessions in 2017 with the help of two of the Desert Aces Alessandro Giusti and Mike Kehoe.
Alberta © Barry Kehoe 2016
Another new song by Barry Kehoe © 2016 inspired by the terrible wild fires that swept through Fort McMurray in May. First recorded in the Fergus Road studio in 2016. Alberta will also feature on the new Album.
Big River by Johnny Cash covered by Desert Aces
This live Rehearsal Recording features our newest member Cormac Redmond keeping the beat on the Cajon. Mike is channelling the spirit of the late, great Johnny Cash with Barry and Lucie providing some sweet harmonies on the chorus. Pete, Barry and Mike laying down the distinctive Desert Aces rhythm and Alesandro picking out the sweetest of lead notes on the electric guitar.
