Bio:

"Rakish Paddy are the strongest force in Irish Folk circles today. The four boys - Gerry Crilly, Brendan Leeson, Seán Og McKenna, and Noel Carroll together eclipse all that was folk in Ireland since the resurgence of this popular idiom of expression in the late fifties and early sixties. Their unique delivery and musicianship, either in concert or session is the most enjoyable experience to encounter." -- Doen Coen, Folk Critic Evening Herald.
