The Peelers LIVE at Pogue Mahone

One Hell of a pre-St Paddy's Day party!
Now based in Montreal, The Peelers were formed in 1999 in North Glengarry County, Ontario. Heavily settled by Scots and Irish during the 18th and 19th centuries, Glengarry is primarily farmland that borders the mighty St. Lawrence River and NY state to the south, and is renowned for it's Gaelic culture, including music, dance, and the largest Highland Games in North America. Less than an hour from the city, singer/ songwriter Dave Barton and Irish Whistle player Eric Diamond, immersed themselves in an environment which smashed head-on into a love of whiskey, poetry, footy, Traditional Irish music, ska and punk. The band has evolved to become one of the most acclaimed Celtic punk acts in the genre. They don’t just bend the rules of tradition with their blend of aggro & trad Irish - these long ball merchants tear it to pieces!

Catch them live at Pogue Mahone Irish Alehouse on their west coast tour!
