High Kings come to town

Town Hall to host established Irish band.

Irish folk band will be touring the UK this summer and included in their itinerary is a date in Birmingham.

The High Kings are Finbarr Clancy, Darren Holden, Paul O’Brien and Brian Dunphy. Between them they play thirteen instruments, creating their unique sound and atmosphere in the folk idiom and re-energise great Irish ballads. They have had great success over the years including Best Folk Act at Ireland’s Music Awards. Their reputation has grown tremendously, and they have had enormous success both within the US and Ireland.

After eleven years at the top of their game, they are still selling out venues around the world to an ever-growing army of loyal fans and will be playing Birmingham Town Hall on 10th June.

The band have charted across the world and performed for hundreds of thousands of fans, as well as in many prestigious situations including for the British Prime Minister (2011), Barak Obama (2012) & George W Bush (2009 at The White House and at The Pentagon in 2015). They have made numerous coast to coast TV appearances including Good Morning America, Good Morning LA, The View & The Today Show.

Notable live performances include Glastonbury, the Isle of Wight Festival (three times) headlining in 2015 and performed in Times Square as well as headlined the St Patrick’s Day concert in Trafalgar Square London in 2015.

The High Kings continue to set the bar extremely high for Irish folk bands across the world and are widely regarded to be the standard-bearer for their genre in 2020. They are, essentially, marking out a new and bright era for Irish folk music.
