The O’Reillys And The Paddyhats are a unique formation that finally gives the Irish folk punk scene something new and refreshing to talk about. The seven multi-instrumentalists don’t care whether they play their shows at a big venue or a small underground establishment. Once they set foot on stage the atmosphere immediately bursts with energy and that feeling you get when you’re partying with all your friends rushes through your body. A solid backline, driving folk and a shared passion for Irish music are the ingredients that have led to multiple sore throats, roaring parties and screams for an encore.
