For more than 40 years Andy Irvine has been one of folk music's greatest innovators, one of its best loved, most enthusiastic and, at times, most innovative performers. His skill, stage presence and natural charm have won him many admirers, not only from within the folk scene, but also far beyond it.
Trailblazing musical partnerships with, amongst others, Sweeneys Men, Donal Lunny and Planxty

He's an eclectic singer, a ground-breaking instrumentalist who combines mid european and Irish influences and an authoritative interpreter of contemporary material. Perhaps, most significant of all, are his settings of traditional songs

Well said, Dick. Some of his folk songs are now regarded as the standard settings, with no recognition given to Andy's contribution.

Andy is also a disciple of Woody Guthrie, sharing his ideal of social justice. And living most of his life on the road too!

And he played in Patrick Street with Jackie Daly. Take every chance to hear him!

Andy Irvine
Through all the years of playing with various bands, Andy has maintained his individualism and singular passion for songs and music that stretch the boundaries of traditional music. Whether it be blending Eastern and Western European traditional music together; carrying the immigrant and exile songs of the Irish diaspora back to Ireland and around the world; or being a persistent voice for social justice and a reminder of the joys and sorrows throughout our human experience, Andy has always stood apart. Often called "a tradition all his own," he defies classification and categorization other than as a musician strongly rooted in the traditional music of all people.

Andy is a member of the Industrial Workers of the World (Wobblies).

Like other artists contracted to perform at Féile Iorrais (a community festival in Erris) in August 2007, Irvine was disgusted to learn that Royal Dutch Shell were partly sponsoring the events. Shell's plans for the Corrib gas project have caused serious division and hurt in County Mayo. Irvine donated part of his fee to the Shell to Sea campaign. Shortly after Andys concert, the film Atlantic[which deals with among other things the Corrib gas project] will be shown in the Ballydehob Community hall.
