I'LL TEAR MY OWN WALLS DOWN - CD~I'LL TEAR MY OWN WALLS DOWN - CD~With that scruffy lad from Celbridge enjoying huge success on the back of a few half-baked folk songs, it's no surprise that a slew of Irish singer-songwriters are busking on the bandwagon and hoping to bag themselves a Hollywood girlfriend. Corkman Bill Coleman is one of the better ones, and he can at least write a tune that doesn't wander off into the woods halfway through. Catholic guilt has been transformed into Celtic lad guilt on such songs as Devilette, Bound and The Pull of the Pint, Coleman lamenting his own very Irish flaws, and looking for salvation in Offer Up the Hope and All There Is. Coleman's finger-picking style keeps the songs fluid, and there's a solidly rocking backing band to keep it all from getting too cross-legged.Kevin Courtney
