About this Event
About Gobs O'Phun
Gobs O'Phun Annual St. Pat’s Concert
Gobs O’Phun has been sharing the feel of their family living room experience at various venues for 31-derful years, making audiences feel like part of the family in the process.
They’re not an instrumental band playing jigs and reels with traditional instruments like fiddles, whistles and pipes. They are primarily a vocal duet as their name hints – “gob” is slang in the British Isles for your mouth. And brothers-in-law Denis Sullivan and Martin Lambuth have a couple of big ones, offering a selection of traditional Irish and Scottish folksongs via seasoned harmonies backed by guitar, bodhran, harmonica and their signature humorous banter.
The Gobs sing songs that tell stories, themes that can resonate with any cultural background, so you don’t need Celtic ancestry to appreciate their music. Their stories cover just about every eventuality – life and death, love and marriage, trials and triumph, subjugation and freedom, self-acceptance and amusing observations. And those topics are covered from different perspectives, from poignant to hysterical and everything in between. You may even hear a drinking song or two (wink). They also open their gobs to share toasts, poems and oral histories of significant events related to the songs. And when they frame their music with spontaneous, ad-libbed humor, you never know what fun will come out of their gobs!
Their casual style invites audiences to laugh, groan, clap, stomp their feet, sing along and leave with a feeling of good cheer. When you’re talking gobs of fun, it’s all about having fun on both sides of the microphone. Get your tickets today for all the special people in your life and let the gob times roll!
