A very talented vocalist - here's Imelda singing a little known Irish ballad together with a virtuoso guitar player, Jeff Beck http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17lCRrXV4Kk
Her gigs with Jeff Beck over the past year or so gotten her some of the attention she deserves. She and JB did a great, respectful take on How High the Moon as a tribute to Les Paul and Mary Ford on the last Grammys.
(Imelda will—allegedly—do some shows with Brian Setzer Orch. late in 2011. Great pairing, if it pans out!)
Irish Rock-a-billy with a bodhran?!?!

What, exactly, were you searching for on YouTube when you ran across that one, JNE? ("Cute Bodhran Player", maybe?)

@ Reverend
Actually I think "cute" is by far an understatement!
It seems much more likely that JNE typed something like "Extremely hot bodhrán player" into the search field, haha!

Another good one to link to in any further discussion of the utter irrelevance of the bodhran though

Reverend and Mattias -
I can neither confirm, nor deny your allegations at this time.
However, I will confirm my new-found attraction to this gal's face and voice. The bass player is badass as well.

The bass line kind of resembles a certain version of Young Ned of the Hill
