		Macha appeared on the scene with their distinctive sonic identity fully formed: an exciting blend of influences ranging from kraut-rock, 70's-rock, post-punk and trance-music, to the street musicians of Indonesia encountered by founding members Josh McKay and Kai Riedl during their travels there.
		MACHA (Which is Yiddish for "The Big Cheese") was realized at the end of 1996 when multi-instrumentalist and MACHA mastermind Joshua McKay (vocals, hammered dulcimer, vibraphone, giutar, bass, various double reed horns, gongs, the Fun Machine, Baldwin Organ, The Kitchen Sink...) learned that his brother Mischo (drums) was moving to Athens.
		MACHA (which means fun in Hindi) was recently joined by childhood friend Wes Martin, who has become a full fledged band member and shares the multi-instrumentalist duties as well as pitching in with vocals.

	Macha, Brighid, The Ancient Goddess of Ireland
		Macha demonstrates in it that she is still supreme in speed, magic and skill but the very fact that a king could force her to race shows that her position in society (and that of women) was becoming weaker.
		In one story Macha is demoted to being the wife of Nemed and is powerless to prevent the slaughter that she has foreseen.
		Macha's curse is from an ancient Irish legend known as "Pangs of the Men of Ulster." This is part of the preamble to Ireland's epic saga the "Tain".

		Macha survived the turn-of-the-century indie rock wars and lived to tell the tale.
		Macha took their songs to completion, resulting in a collaboration that exists in a zone between two points.
		Macha's textured trance-rock might sometimes remind you of later Yo La Tengo with elements of Joy Division and 60's and 70's progressive rock, even Jimi Hendrix whom guitarist, Josh shook the hand of when he was a small.

		Macha was out of a job as A's manager Wednesday after failing to reach an agreement on a new contract, which he called one of several ''massive disappointments'' in his tenure.
		Macha led the A's to the AL West title in his first year as manager in 2003, the club's fourth straight playoff berth.
		Macha had said he hoped to return to the A's, but declined to discuss specifics of the team's offer, saying money matters are strictly personal.

		Macha listened to the unfinished drum, guitar and vocal tracks and filled in the white spaces.
		The result is "Bedhead Loved Macha" -- a record that's less a proper album than it is a think-piece, a demarcation of the territory where seemingly disparate sensibilities shake hands at a high school reunion and proceed to hang out until dawn.
		Because as wonderful as Macha's embellishments are -- and even as unthinkable as they would have been to Bedhead themselves -- it's Bedhead that, for the moment, steals the show, if only because this record is such a dramatic wave goodbye.

	irish - celtic legacy ~Macha Mong Ruad
		This great Queen, of whom Ireland rightly boast's, was Macha Mong Ruad (the Red-Haired) who reigned over the land in approximately 300 B.C. Her father, Aod Ruad (Red Hugh) was one of a triumvirate consisting of his brothers ~ Dithorba and Cimbaoth ~ who by mutual agreement took turns at seven year intervals in reigning.
		For many years the reign of Macha and Cimbaoth (which co-incides with that of the legendary Alexander the Great) marks the beginning of certainty in Irish history ~ according to the famed remark of the trusted eleventh century historian, Tighenach of Clonmacnoise, where he stated that such records prior to that reign were uncertain.
		Today, Emania Macha is represented by the grassy ramparts of a great hill-fortress, now known as Navan Fort, about three miles north-west of Ard Macha (Armagh), A complete description and plan of the rath by H. d'Arbois de Jubainville may be found in the Revue Celtique, vo1.

		Macha's strength has always been its sense of texture and mood, while Bedhead's songs are sturdy enough to stand with or without fancy arrangements.
		Macha's material sometimes gets by (very winningly, though) on its impressive and adventurous sense of tonal color, but here the tracks are solid enough that they'd work, although nowhere near as well, alone with guitar and voice.
		The chorus's main melody is literally phoned-in, played on a touchtone telephone, and the vocal line is egregiously pitch-corrected: the song is simultaneously a parody of contemporary digital studio hyperreality and a demonstration that there was a barely breathing song beneath the suffocating weight of the god-knows-how-many megabytes coded into the hit version's arrangement.

		Macha is one of those bands that you wonder how and why they became what they did when they did.
		A limited number of Macha discs even include a second CD full of recordings of music and singing from Sumatra, Bali, and Java.
		Much of Macha’s music is soothing and instrumental, although Josh McKay provides soft, cooing vocals on parts of several of the tracks.

		Macha marked out the extent of the fort here with her brooch, it is said, and forced the captives from the succession wars to build the structure.

	Macha's managing risk
		Macha's agent, Alan Nero, and A's general manager Billy Beane briefly touched base about a one-year extension plus a team-option year three weeks ago, but Macha decided that he would prefer to wait, perhaps until after the season.
		Though Beane might not be the easiest GM for whom to work, he speaks highly of Macha and their relationship, and Macha has no way of knowing who would be running the team, because Beane has an out clause in his contract in the event the team is sold.
		Another topic Macha addressed during Wednesday's luncheon was the future of outfielder Eric Byrnes, who has been the subject of trade rumors all winter, mostly recently involving the Pirates.

	Splendid E-zine reviews: Macha and Bedhead
		The band Macha, led by the McKay brothers (Joshua and Mischo), will still exist after this, but call Macha Loved Bedhead Loved Macha a beautiful swan song for Bedhead (and its Texas brothers, Matt and Bubba Kadane).
		As for how fleshed-out they were, I'm really curious; if Bedhead only deliveredsome melodic sketch to the finale, I'm blown over by how Macha first added some telephone dial sounds, then realized that a wonderful, thoroughly original remake of Cher's "Believe" lurked within.
		As for the question first posed by Cher -- "Do you believe in life after love?" -- here is my answer: when great bands like Macha and Bedhead exist, it's almost scary how easily pain can be forgotten...as long as their songs keep playing.

	Macha - MysticWicks Online Pagan Community and Pagan Forums
		I just read today about Macha, some people say she is involved with the morrighan but in this book of Irish folklore she is a woman who is the fastest woman in the kingdom, and the king challenges her to a race against his chariot, but she doesnt want to because she's pregnant.
		In the meantime, Macha managed to persuade her brother Cimbaeth to marry her in order to legitimate her position.
		Once they were all home, Macha took her brooch and marked out the boundaries in order to keep her nephews safely locked away, and it is suggested that the great brooch can be likened to the circular ramparts of the fort itself, with the "cloak" in this instance being Macha's territory.

		this is a surprise to me. I had thought that Macha was fairly well liked, and that the team's performance, especially this year, was pretty good despite losing two all-star pitchers and all the injuries.
		His agent wanted the 4th year thrown in there, total package value of just under $5/M. Since Macha is from PA, look for him to seriously consider joining the Buc's.

		Batting second, depending on the arm with which the opposing starter throws, could be rookie right fielder Nick Swisher, who drew more than 100 walks in the minor leagues last year, or ever-improving left fielder Eric Byrnes, who kills left-handed pitching and put up career highs in several offensive categories in 2004.
		Thus, Macha didn't appear overly concerned that aside from Chavez, there isn't a genuine power hitter in the lineup.
		As for the rest of Oakland's weaknesses in 2004, mainly the bench and the bullpen, Macha expects those areas to be addressed in due time.

		There is a simple guitar and drum part which we may assumed was supplied by Bedhead, but it is buried underneath layers of crazy instruments like zithers and other plinging and ringing sounds.

	Macha And Bedhead - Bedhead Loved Macha - almost cool music review
		Having gone to school together during their youth, members of Macha and Bedhead sort of conceived this project after the demise of Bedhead last year.
		Apparently, the group still had some tapes of music that they had done, so they sent these tapes to their friends in Macha and let them do with the music what they would.
		On the album opening track, the crux of the guitar/bass/drums sound like a fairly normal Bedhead track, right down to the somewhat soft lyrics, but the obvious Macha touches are there as well, with some chimes laid down to reinforce the rhythm section and add another subtle layer to the quiet parts of the track.
