About this Event

John Byrne returns for his annual Midwest solo tour at the Cotton Hill Barn promoting his band's recent album A Shiver In The Sky. Many of you already know John's Irish folk music background and unique vocal style.


JOHN BYRNE BANDSHORT BIO


Led by Dublin native and Philadelphia resident, The John Byrne Band’s latest recording, A Shiver in the Sky, shows his band of multi-instrumentalists vibrantly executing their brand of ferocious folk.

Support from radio all over the country pushed the album to #1 on the Roots Radio Report Alternative Folk Charts.

Their live sets will leave you “breathless, exhausted and delighted”(Irish Philadelpia) as they seamlessly weave original songs and pure Celtic Folk.

The band are working on projects for release later this year.

Critical Acclaim

Rich with the sounds and themes of Irish tradition, one that survives in a modern world… full of raw strength… puts me in mind of an Irish Alejandro Escavedo” Sing Out

“One of the few musical artists today who truly manage to be traditional and modern at the same time.” Philadelphia Inquirer

“He’s good, period, with material that’s edgy yet accessible in a Luka Bloom meets Bob Dylan kind of way.” Philadelphia Daily News
