Black 47
National Guard Captain Padraic Lilly related to Black 47‘s music instantly. When bandleader Larry Kirwan started hearing from soldiers like Lilly, their experiences fed a new batch of songs about the Iraq war. But Black 47’s anti-war message doesn’t sit well with all of its fans. Produced by Trent Wolbe.
