By Sora Campbell
Expositor Staff
Two musical St.
Columban natives are set to
release their debut album at
the end of January with
their Celtic rock band
Steerage.
Dave and Sharon Kelly, a
brother and sister team and
members of the Kitchener -
Waterloo - based band
Steerage, will be hosting
their CD release party on
Jan. 30 at Bentley's in
Stratford.
"People have been asking
when we would be
releasing a CD, so we give
the people what they want,"
said Dave, manager and
guitar player for Steerage.
"Our friends and family are
pretty excited but no one
has actually heard it yet.
We're waiting for the CD
release party."
The CD • entitled
Overboard comes from the
band's name Steerage
which is a section of a ship
where "all the really good
parties take place," said
Dave.
Overboard features such
songs as "The Night that
Paddy Murphy Died,"
"Whiskey in the Jar" and
"Drunken Sailor."
"We take traditional
Celtic music and mix them
with a rock style so they're
fun just like the way we
play," said Dave, a sports
and entertainment company
manager.
He said they start
producing the CD in

October and spent 100
hours in the recording
studio.
The six member band
includes a fiddler, drummer,
bass player and second
guitarist. Sharon, an actress
and teacher in Cambridge,
is a step dancer and singer
for the band.
"She enjoys keeping the
crowd's attention by
constantly moving and
adding costumes and
themes. She's a very
dramatic person and is
always looking for new
digs," he said.
Dave added that Steerage
recently marked their
second year together and
played their 60th gig.
"We've been working
really hard and have come a
long way for a band with
members that all have other
full time jobs," he said.
The band has already gigs
booked through to July,
including a regular monthly
performances at Bentley's
in Stratford as well as other
Celtic bars, private parties
and the Listowel Paddy Fest
in March, said Dave.
"Celtic bars are the in
thing right now," he said.
"Our shows appeal to all
ages and the more people
that see us, the more people
want us to play."
But, Dave said he looks
forward most to performing
at his and Sharon's
hometown.
On March 6, Steerage
will entertain at the St.
Paddy's Day Warmup Party
at the Seaforth Community
Centre and on March 19
they will perform at
Hurley's Celtic Inn. ,
It's always nice to come
home but our family and
friends usually come to see
us play. And, we seem to
have a fan club because the
crowds really enjoy us and
many people keep coming
back," he said.
"As long as we're having
fun the crowd's having fun
oo. And, so far every
rowd is having fun at
anywhere we play."
