The Brooklyn Bards


We are an acoustic traditional Irish folk band, performing across the tri-state area for over twelve years.  The band appears regularly at many Irish pubs, restaurants, weddings, and festivals.  We play everything from the old Carolan tunes up to recent traditional repertoire including reels, jigs, ballads, airs, drinking songs, sea shanties, marches and rebel songs.  Experience the joy found in the deep lyrics, rich melodies and rhythms of traditional Irish music!
