As an Irish gal three things warm my heart-- 1) a good lager 2) a cosy Irish pub and 3) a killer band. Last Thursday, as I was walking past Fados on 7th I overheard a band that absolutely rocked. Scythian has been hailed as DC's best Irish band and the lads did not disappoint in last week's performance. Brothers Alexander Fedoryka and Danylo Fedoryka along with Mike Ounallah and Josef Crosby brought the house down with traditional Irish folksongs. The boys also managed to revolutionize some of the Celtic tunes by adding hip-hop influences and rapping some of the lyrics (with an Irish rouge of course!). The place was packed and the crowd was having a ye olde grand time. Plus, the band attracted a crowd from across the pond as there were some very good looking Scots in for a golf tournament (how I love the UK!).
