The Dublin Legends (The Dubliners)

Following the sudden death of founding member Barney McKenna in 2012 and John Sheahan's’ decision to retire it was agreed that The Dubliners, as a touring band, would end and The Dublin Legends were born.

The Dublin Legends - Sean Cannon, Paul Watchorn, Gerry O’Connor & Shay Kavanagh - have over 100 years of performing experience between them and Sean was the lead singer with The Dubliners for over 30 of them!

They will, of course, continue to play all the classic songs and ballads known the world over; Whiskey in The Jar, Dirty Old Town, The Wild Rover, Seven Drunken Nights, The Rare Auld Times, Molly Malone, The Irish Rover, Black Velvet Band and many more.

When lead guitarist Eamonn Campbell sadly passed away in 2017 the lads asked an old friend, Shay Kavanagh, if he would like to come on the road with them and Shay readily agreed.

He is a stalwart of the Irish Folk Music scene. He was a founding member of General Humbert with the great Mary Black and has played with The Dublin City Ramblers for many years.

From Seven Drunken Nights to Whiskey in The Jar. Make sure you join the boys for a pint or two on the road.
