If you found us, and you’re looking for a band for March, we’re sorry to say we’re not taking any new gigs at this point.

 

San Francisco Bay Area band, The Gallowglasses can tailor a playlist of traditional and modern Irish/Scottish/Celtic music ranging from rowdy pub songs to quiet background instrumentals, and would be perfect for your party, pub, wedding or corporate event.

The band plays all acoustic instruments, including guitar, fiddle, mandolin, Irish bouzouki, mandola and traditional percussion. All four members sing, so expect 2, 3 and even 4 part harmonies at times. The Irish and Scottish tunes range from slow waltzes to foot-stomping jigs and reels.
