The Mighty Ghosts of Erin

The Ghosts of Erin are a blend of the finest-tuned musicians in the Irish folk/ballad/traditional scene. We are a four-piece band with two of the finest veterans; Mr Tony McCabe who has played with the likes of Derek Warfield, Patsy Watchorn, Johnny McEvoy, Paddy Reilly, Finbar Furey, etc. Playing acoustic guitar and singing a wide variety of Irish ballads. Beside him, on banjo, mandolin and many more instruments, the very talented and very experienced newest member of the band, the star of Kildare, Mr Seanie Smullen. On bass guitar, sound technician and engineer, Athy man, with a flavoured experience of backing Ireland's finest bands, Mr Michael Kerins. From Co. Wexford, without a doubt, one of the country's finest whistle players, a major player in the formation of The Ghosts of Erin, Miss Carmel Arthur. Together the lads guarantee professionalism agus craic to the highest of standards. Over a short period of time, The Ghosts of Erin have fronted the Derby Festival in Kildare and have just arrived back from a very successful tour of Germany and are due back for further invitations. With experience from covering Boston, the lads intend to experiment, travel and share their music all over the globe. They intend to release a CD this year and are currently working on their own original songs.
