The best kept secret in music

“Darby O’Gill is the best Irish bar band you’ll see performing in a bookstore.” - Borders Books and Music
“Anyone who’s seen the Darby O’Gill band play an Irish song knows that the group captures the contrast of merriment and sorrow that fills those tunes. It’s what kept the Irish sane throughout the centuries, and what makes the band the most vibrant group in the western United States today. They have the humor and energy of a leprechaun and the spirit of a banshee” - Oregonian Newspaper
Fine piece of music from Oregon. Darby O'Gill is fun to listen to. Lots of good musicianship, great vocals and good humor. - Tradition Magazine

Bio
Darby O'Gill is an energetic stage-show band that uses fine music and cutting humor in a singularly Irish style. Their music is ancient and modern, many of them are original, award-winning pieces. The majority are traditional Irish/Scottish songs. But the single most important thing to be said about their music is that in none of it is there ever to be found any hint or reference to squirrels.
