Roving Crows - Multi award winning & un-missable IRISH FOLK ROCK
Roving Crows are an Irish Folk Rock band who deliver the goods with unbounded amounts of riotous energy and banter .
The Crows started their journey when a guitarist from Kildare and a
fiddle player from Cheltenham, via Donegal, met at a festival in 2007.
The music flowed and they’ve not stopped since, with 4 albums under
their belt and several national and international
awards, this, now 4 piece, are an awe-inspiring force on stage -
unstoppable and passionate.
This Irish group seamlessly marry humour, provocative lyrics ,
traditional Irish tunes and rock to entertain and bring the listener on a
ride that they won’t want to get off! They make a hell of a noise for 4
people!
The band, now based in Herefordshire & Worcestershire, have wowed
crowds at festivals and venues across the UK, Australia, France and the
Netherlands! They are a MUST SEE live act; a mix of fiery fiddle playing
and conscious lyrics alongside driving drums and
bass.
Roving Crows are - Paul O’Neill (guitar and lead vocals); Caitlin
Barrett (fiddle & vocals); Laurence Aldridge (drums & vocals)
and Jim Smith (bass & vocals).
Their passion and energy on stage is infectious, never failing to
deliver a great time with their vibrant live show! Their music pushes
the boundaries of the Irish Folk genre, the jumping jigs and reels will
get you dancing whilst their enquiring and provocative
lyrics will make you think.
The band released their 4th album ‘AWAKEN’ in 2022 and received
extensive radio play across the UK as well as 4* reviews for their
work. The album was fully funded by a National Lottery Project Grant.
