The Young Wolfe Tones are Irish music tradition the way it's meant to be.
Derek Warfield has enjoyed a lifetime of success as a founding member of the
legendary Wolfe Tones and as a solo artist. His love of musical tradition
is such that a way to pass it on was in order. So a new day dawns on The Wolfe
Tones legend, The Young Wolfe Tones. Assembled to continue the legacy of a
legend are some of Ireland's finest young musicians. Singer / songwriter Padraig
Allen hales from a famous musical family himself and as front man for the
popular Tipperary Celtic rock band The Whole Shabang is no stranger to the
American tour circuit having played all major US festival venues. Multi instrumentalist
Damaris Woods has won more Irish musical awards than even she can count. Much
sought after as a teacher, studio and tour musician, audiences are left spell
bound by her amazing musicianship. She is duly recognized as one of the best
banjo players of our time. Jim Woods, brother to Damaris, has a host of awards
himself and plays a sweet accordion. He is no stranger to television in Ireland,
England, Canada and America, he has toured & shared the stage with a who's
who of Irish acts, Altan, Andy Cooney, Liz Doherty he's even shared the stage
with Jethro Tull. Their new double CD set is a combination of classic Irish
crowd pleasers and a showcase of pure musical talent. It is tradition being “handed
on” as the Irish say, but most of all it is just plain fun.
