McAnnix

From: IRL

Active: circa 1973

Style: folk rock

Lineup:

Bio:

An interesting oneshot single pairing excellent folk rock arrangements of "Lord of the Dance" and Jon Ledingham's "Julia". Both tracks were also released on singles by MacMurrough / Shades of MacMurrough in the same period (1972-73) and I'd previously speculated that there may have been a link between the two bands. In fact it turns out McAnnix was a short-lived group led by Jim McCann. The single is described as a the first release by McCann's new grouo in an issue of Billboard magazine from May 1973. Having finally heard it, it's a considerably more energetic take on folk rock that MacMurrough and a bit of a departure for Jim McCann.
