The Onlies recently learned The Roaring Barmaid, a popular Irish jig played worldwide. As usual, they Onlies-ized it. Hope ya like it! Watch closely to see if Riley decides to sit or stand!
By request, just the audio from the video above…
The Onlies, being modern youth, do like their social media. We shoulda mentioned this before, but you can of course Like the Onlies Facebook page, just as much as you can like them in real life. Actually, you can only Like them once on Facebook, but feel free to like them more than that in real life.
The band is taking a month-long break for, among other things, exotic traveling to the Euro-zone. Stay tuned for tales from the road, but put the night 0f November 10th on your calendars for a raucous return engagement to A Terrible Beauty.
Vote for A Terrible Beauty!Our friends at A Terrible Beauty Irish Pub in West Seattle are competing in the Best of Western Washington contest under the Best Irish Pub category (and a couple of other categories as well). Voting continues until October 10th.
The Onlies will be be playing there on November 10th, so wouldn’t it be great to have them win that category with Onlies fans’ help?

Don’t pierce the rutabagas!It might be the only farmer’s market in the United States conveniently located near several tattoo and piercing parlors. This Sunday, September 18th, come watch the Onlies play the Broadway Farmer’s Market from 11am to 1pm.
Right after playing the market Leo and Riley are going to walk two blocks over to Bobby Morris field and play a soccer game. If music isn’t your thing, maybe the soccer will do. Kick off (is that what they call it?) is at 1pm.
The Onlies are now back in Seattle, after a whirlwind of a great time at Valley of the Moon, and a sublime siesta on the beautiful campus of San Jose State University.
The kids learned lots of tunes that they will start incorporating into upcoming sets. First up: busking at the Redmond Saturday Market from 10 a.m. to noon Sept. 10, and a performance later that day at the Northgate Festival, 3 p.m. Catch them if you can!
The Onlies and their peeps had a fabulous time celebrating that enemy of snakes, St. Patrick. Here’s a little idea of how the evening went…
