Musical force of nature? Master songwriter? Blazing piano virtuoso? This is Danny Beirne and more.Danny’s been around … but he hasn’t slowed down one bit. In his early days, Danny had the great fortune to substitute last minute for Chuck Berry’s piano player. As the Baltimore Evening Sun reported, “Berry’s set got a big boost when [another pianist] was replaced by Danny Beirne. He tossed off some scorching riffs on the piano, impressing both the crowd and, obviously, Berry.”

This new line-up would play a handful of gigs and record a full-length album in 2002 under the KRADLE moniker titled “Unleashed” The album consisted of 9-songs, six of which were older KRADLE songs re-recorded. The album also included three new tracks, one of which was the heartfelt tribute to Tod Larkin called ‘Watching Over Me’. It would be self-released on CD with very minimal distribution leading to the release being fairly hard to find twenty years later.

Alongside the release of the KRADLE ‘Standing on the Edge’ demo collection in August, Heaven and Hell Records will also be reissuing KRADLE ‘Unleashed’. Features include all 9-songs that have been remastered by Jamie King, an 8-page booklet with complete lyrics and touched-up artwork. The release will be limited to 500 copies worldwide.
