BIO/EVENT
The Irish Descendants are celebrating their 35th Anniversary in 2025 which gives you even more of a reason to come out and party with the Newfoundland / Irish band that started it all here on the East Coast.. Saturday March 15 come out to be part of the best Paddy's Day Celebration in Halifax, a show you won't want to miss.
The Irish Descendants played a pivotal role in introducing traditional Newfoundland music to a broader Canadian audience during the early 1990s, sharing the stage with other iconic bands like Great Big Sea. Their authentic renditions of timeless tunes from the East Coast, blended with an Irish twist, have made them a cherished part of Canada’s folk music scene.
Their popularity soared to such heights that they were chosen as the official band for Newfoundland and Labrador’s 500th-anniversary celebrations, where they had the honour of performing for Her Majesty the Queen. This landmark event marked a turning point for the band.
