Music
Black Irish Band
The Black Irish Band, also known as the Hooligans of Jamestown, have been together for 19 years and have released 17 Cd albums to date. The band has a musical style that is as timeless as the rugged landscape of the west, a tribute to the people whose lives were spent building the world we now take for granted. From the Singapore World Music Festival to the Kennedy Center they have perform for thousands of music lovers.
The band has a large compliment of traditional maritime and railroad music, as well as ethnic tunes in their repertoire. They commonly play Irish, Scot's, Italian, and American folk music with an assortment of original songs and traditional western ballads.The bands musical style captures the spirit of the immigrants of this land, the men and women who tamed the Wild West.
