Ranagri sound like a precious, unspoiled spot of beauty. The Irish village of Ranagri that gave the band its name. On Playing For Luck, the four Londoners marry musical influences ranging from classical, folk and blues.

If their story did not exist, it would have to be invented. A get-together in the pub – a band’s story comes into being. Guitar and flutes, harp and bodhran, bouzouki – and each time these melodious voices oscillating between melancholy and pure joie de vivre.
