�Jimmy Keane & Pat Broaders� is the fifth release from the critically acclaimed Chicago based trad group bohola and marks a return to its origins as a duo. bohola continues its trademark tracks of mini-suites combining tunes and songs both traditional and newly written within the idiom. Some highlights of the recording are Tommy Sand's �The Bushes of Jerusalem, � the poignant newly extended version of �In the Month of January,� and two tunes written by Jimmy Keane for Dennis Cahill's late wife Gwen Sale: �Gweneen� and �Down the Doon.�

Tradition in Review by Bill Margeson
Vocal/Instrumental Album of 2008
"Chicago's own hometown world champions. This album NEVER puts a foot wrong, and really showcases the two lads' magic at its best. Jimmy and Pat are such a vibrant, critical part of Chicago's preeminent position as the best city in the world for Irish music lovers. Their almost insane concert schedule proves the world agrees. These are two master musicians in their day and in their prime-and this album shows all that and more. Pat's vocals get better and better and better---and no one can now touch Jimmy on that magical accordion of his. These guys, right now, are alpha and omega. We love 'em!! WOW!!"
