There's a new sound on the Emerald Isle: Ireland Finds New Soul in Gospel Music.
Some of the groups profiled are affiliated with Catholic parishes, but it seems this trend is part of the de-Catholicization of Ireland. Or, more hopefully, it is a movemnet to fill the void left by said de-Catholicization.
After all, the Irish are, it has been said, the Blacks of Europe. And if Koreans are the Irish of Asia, does this not explain the Korean love of R&B?

Redeemed by Our Savior, I work out my salvation with fear and trembling in Pohang, South Korea, where I live with my wife, daughter, and son and teach English at a science and technology university. Baptized a Methodist and raised a Missouri Synod Lutheran in Buffalo, NY, I spent six years as a guest of the Anglican Communion before being received by the Grace of God into the One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church on the Feast of Saint Andrew, my patron, anno domini 2002.
