The Pale (band)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Pale are an Irish band consisting of 3 members.
The Pale were formed in Dublin in 1990 with Matthew Devereux on vocals, Shane Wearen on mandolin, Sean Molloy on Bass, and a drum machine. They released an award winning debut album on A&M records in 1992 called Here's One We Made Earlier. The debut album and live shows received critical praise internationally. The singles from that debut Dogs With No Tails, Butterfly, and Shut Up Venus did well in both Ireland and the UK.
The highest chart positions came in Turkey, Israel and France, and have given rise to successful cover versions of their songs released in Turkey. As the group have toured they have added and subtracted instruments and players to the line-up. The mainstay of the group has remained the sound conjured up by Matthew and Shane - one of ethnic fusion.
Over the years The Pale have recorded five live sessions for RTE Radio and a further two for BBC radio. The most recent session was recorded for John Kelly's The Mystery Train for which they debuted new songs from their upcoming album.
In 2006 they released The Final Garden E.P on their own label Devereux Records. More recently The Pale have re-recorded their single Butterfly in their native Irish for a compilation called Ceol 06 which charted in the Irish Top Ten.
In 2007 they completed recording a new album with Q (aka Colm Quearney) in the production seat.
