Ancient Ireland was a land ruled by hippy cult leader druids and rock star bards. This is the story of what happens when a young bard gets sent to a town in the north that’s never heard music before.
That's the basis of my comic series Oi! Tales of Bardic Fury.
Oi! is inspired heavily by my passions for rock music, history, and ancient Gaelic culture and mythology. Traditional Irish music and poetry to me is the most beautiful in the world and more people need to know about the cultures great musical history. Iron Age Ireland was a culture controlled by mushroom chewing druids, where music was considered a form of magic, and even had the power to overthrow kings.
Druids were like hippy cult leaders and Bards were like rock stars. The more I researched and learned about ancient Irish society, the more ideas and characters began popping in to my head. I had to create a story in this setting. Soon Oi! was born.
