'WE takE trad and giVE IT a kick’

The result IS an entertaining show of high energy, audience interaction and violin, drum & guitar driven Irish rock accompanied by backstories and anECDOTES of the songs and the characters within, WHILST UPHOLDING THE INTEGRITY OF THE ORIGINAL VERSION.

PRE SHOW VO
get ready to be swept up in the heartbeat of the Celtic sound. It’s more than music — it’s rhythm that pulses through generations, it’s the sound of history told through strings, drums, and song. The Celtic beat has this magical power — it sneaks into your chest, lifts your spirit, and before you know it, your hands are clapping, your feet are tapping, and you’re smiling without even realising it.
It’s music that carries joy, laughter, and just a touch of mischief. It tells stories of love, loss, triumph, and togetherness — but always with that irresistible drive that makes you want to move. The Celtic rhythm is alive, vibrant, and deeply human — it connects us, it unites us, and it celebrates the very best of what it feels like to be here, in this moment, together.
So tonight, let that beat carry you. Lean into the energy, feel the joy rise up, and get ready for a rollicking ride of fiddle, guitar, mandolin, accordion, drums and bass.
This is music that doesn’t just play to you, it plays through you.
