WE ARE The Irish Descendants
Four guys who played in bands, worked in a fishery and hailed from little places you'd have to use your atlas to find, formed The Irish Descendants.
The Irish Descendants have built their reputation on a foundation of strong songs, stellar vocals and top-notch musicianship. Their music contains a mixture of original and traditional songs and is full of warmth and humor. This CD aptly named "WE ARE The Irish Descendants" is the perfect choice for the uninitiated, intended to point out that while the band may carry the name, it is in fact the band and you the audience that truly comprise The Irish Descendants. It provides highlights from previously released CDs and should be enough to encourage any descendant to collect them all.
The Irish Descendants are recording artists for the Kells Music label.
