With over a decade of experience playing in pubs across Ireland, we specialize in delivering powerful ballads, rousing rebel songs, and foot-stomping trad tunes that keep the craic alive.

Ray & Kate Mc Nicholas — Spanish Point Co.Clare, 2024. The Byrne Brothers made our Day Two celebrations absolutely unforgettable! After the excitement of the wedding day, their lively and soulful session in the pub brought everyone together for one last sing-song and a proper Irish knees-up. The energy, musicianship, and powerful vocals were incredible, and our guests haven’t stopped raving about it. We couldn’t have asked for a better way to wrap up our wedding weekend. Thank you so much! — Ray & Kate

Hazel & Andy Mooney — Old Castle Co.Meath, 2018. We had the Byrne Brothers play for our second-day celebrations, and it was one of the best decisions we made. Their music had everyone up singing, clapping, and dancing — exactly what we wanted! They created such a warm and lively atmosphere, and it felt like a proper Irish session with friends. We’re still talking about it years later! — Hazel & Andy

Barry & Jackie Maher— Tipperary, 2021. The Byrne Brothers brought the house down at our Day Two pub session in Tipperary. The mix of trad tunes and ballads was just perfect, and they had the whole crowd singing along from start to finish. It felt like a classic Irish pub night, and our family and friends are still reminiscing about the craic we had. Highly recommend these lads for any wedding celebration! — Barry & Jackie
