The Profits

The Profits are the most serious cover band ever.

They don't seem to have a genre. They play the Violent Femmes to Billy Idol, and both Elvis's (Elvi?)

If you like your dance floor packed and white tie wearing guys, The Profits are your band.

They are diverse enough to vary set lists to the show but focus in on pop and dance. Rather than classics or hair rock, they pull from INXS and Violent femmes with a little cheese and melodies thrown in.

Sean Daly and the Shams

Sean Daly grew up during the troubles and from an early age was inspired by music that cried out for freedom. He has carried these songs with him throughout his life where he has championed his homeland through song, story, and action. Sean, knowing every word by heart, singing them from his memories as a young boy, and living the music as a homage to what the ten suffered in the H Block cells. Sean Daly and the Shams are a vibrant and unique offering to the Celtic scene and are not to be missed.
