Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best gig you've ever done and the best venue you've ever worked at?

Our favourite performances are those where we can really connect with the audience and share our love of great live music. We particularly enjoy playing to a full, engaged crowd who appreciate the musicianship, attention to detail and authenticity we bring to every performance.

These are always the best gigs, regardless of what venue they are in.


What's your favourite type of event?

We particularly enjoy events where people have come to listen to live music and appreciate a great performance. Our style suits music lovers who enjoy hearing well-played, authentic versions of great Irish and classic rock songs, rather than simply having music in the background. Concert-style events, festivals, music venues, pubs and private events where the music is a real focus are an ideal fit for us.


What's your previous experience and how did you start gigging?

Very experienced band comprised of members with extensive experience in playing live gigs.


Which artists have you been most influenced by, who is your favourite artist and what is the greatest song of all time?

Phil Lynott from Thin Lizzy.
U2s "I still haven't found what I'm looking for".

Performance Info

What are your typical setup and performance times?

Normally 2 hours non-stop.
Happy to play a bit longer or shorter as needed.


Are you happy to perform outside?

Yes, as long as it is sheltered from the elements, particularly rain.


Do the clients have a say in what you play or is it a set repertoire list only?

We have a large repertoire of 30 Irish rock songs.
Happy to learn a few others if requested, as long as it's rock and by a band that is considered Irish.


How do previous clients most commonly describe your performances?

Previous clients would describe us as a professional, accomplished group of musicians who really care about getting the details right. We put a lot of work into authentically recreating the songs we play, from the instrument parts and vocals to the overall sound. We love seeing an audience engaged and enjoying the music, and we take pride in delivering a polished, well-balanced live sound with professional equipment.
