Irish Pub Music

16 years ago, when I was 19, I went to an Irish pub with some friends after band practice. After some time and a few beers we unpacked our guitars and started playing acoustic. We sang and stomped on the wooden floor, attracting the attention of the other guests, who began to clap after the songs and startet to request songs from us. The bartender asked us to finish at 1 o'clock, but some guests still called their friends and so the place became more and more crowded. We played until 6 o'clock in the morning.
After that night I decided to start playing live music in bars & pubs.

Saturday evening, a creaky old wooden floor, dark beer, relaxed conversation. The week was exhausting, but now it's time to relax. Bruce Springsteen, Simon & Garfunkel as a warm-up. All the song (...) Mehr anzeigens you know. Galway Girl, off to Ireland. In the 2nd set from Bon Jovi to SWEEEEET CAROLINE and over the Country Roads into the Summer of '69. A heartbreaker is a must in the 3rd set and you can always rely on an emotionally charged "When You Say Nothing At All". Weniger anzeigen
