What's everyone's favorite Irish music group?

What's everyone's favorite Irish or Celtic group? I like John Doan, Celtic Woman, and The Wolfe Tones. ("You'll Never Beat the Irish" by Wolfe Tones is absolutely great!) I'm looking for all kinds of new groups, so be sure to throw any names into the discussion when you feel like doing so. Thanks, people!

Try listening to The Prodigals. They sound a lot like The Pogues, and their songs "The Opening Reel" and "Bunch of Red Roses" were just in that new movie with Colin Farrell and Edward Norton, "Pride and Glory." If you're interested, you can download them here and here.
