Blues, Folk, Country, Oldies done the Isle of Man way! Why are they stationary ? Some say that they don't travel, and indeed they are at home in "The Mitre", a welcoming hostelry in Kirk Michael on the west coast of the Isle of Man, just across the water from Ireland. However you will sometimes find them far away from their island home.

Yeah, it's not often I find Celtic folk songs from outside Ireland and Scotland, but I was really happy when The Stationary Willberries introduced me to "Pride of Purt la Morra" which means "The Pride of Port St. Mary", a fun Manx song about a big headed man who is capable of anything and sure of his status in the community. With some rousing sing-along-able lyrics and tasty accordian bits.
