“Craic Wisely has played at the Michigan Irish Music Festival many times and, in almost all cases, they overwhelm the facilities that we've planned. They have the ability to create fans very quickly and those fans will follow them anywhere. They are an authentic Celtic group with an unbridled energy that is extremely engaging. Try not having fun when they are on stage!”

"Craic Wisely brings together strong vocal harmonies, upbeat rhythms and solid instrumental talent. These elements are fused into a distinctive contemporary style and a strong sense of fun and positive energy grounded in modern musical sensibilities. Craic Wisely is fast becoming a regional favorite."

“Saturday means fans of Irish music, traditions and libations have plenty of time to get on a roll. And when it comes to rolling, few can match the enthusiasm and innovation of Craic Wisely's staunch followers This year, they have chartered a bus so they can safely follow and revel with Craic Wisely at all of their weekend performances -- 9:30 p.m. Friday at Dublin Square in East Lansing, 1 p.m. Saturday at Quinn and Tuite's Irish Pub in Grand Rapids, then back to Dublin Square in East Lansing for a 6 p.m. Saturday show. "It's wild. Our fan club got a tour bus before the band ever did," Herring said. "We're really fortunate to have this almost-evangelistic type of fan base. We love it."”

Bio
Craic Wisely is a five piece celtic-rock outfit based in West Michigan. Building a fan base throughout the midwest and Canada, with two voices, a fiddle, a cello, two guitars, a bass and a set of drums. Craic Wisely plays a combination of original music and Irish traditional favorites. Every song CW plays has an edge that separates it from every other Celtic-Rock act on the scene. Craic Wisely plays songs. Crowds sing along, and people dance, on occasion beer is spilled. In the seven years CW has been playing out, they have absorbed the character of your favorite haunt… seasoned, personal and ready to romp. Won’t you romp with us?
