Music is very important to our family, and many of the O&#8217;Malleys either make their living with music, or are striving towards that goal.  There are rappers and classical guitarists and Broadway singers and folk-rock singers and we were all on display at our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sheilaomalley.com\/?p=58379\">O&#8217;Malley Family Jamboree<\/a>, which was virtually Von Trapp-ian in look and feel. I remember going to see Liam play with his band at the legendary Rat in Boston, while I was living there.  Dr. Mars is his latest incarnation and it&#8217;s been thrilling to watch it all come together.  <\/p>\n<p>So many good songs. I love &#8220;I&#8217;ll Have You Anyway&#8221; but my favorite track is &#8220;You Had the Same Dream Too&#8221;. There&#8217;s something about it, it got under my skin when I heard a rough draft of it.  Something with the chord progressions, Liam&#8217;s voice, and the lyrics too.
