While you’re there, buy a ticket for the upcoming “Halfway to St. Patrick’s” event at The National. We’ll be one of the opening bands for our friends Uisce Beatha. Openers start at 7PM. You can purchase tickets by sending an email to ginger@thedonnybrooks.com or by calling 804-306-8062. To thank you for your support, we’re giving away a free “The Donnybrooks” T-shirt with every 2-ticket purchase. This is limited to the first 20 fans, so get your tickets today!

As the crisp fall air rolls in and temps are low — let The Donnybrooks warm you up with some friendly traditional Irish music. If you stick around long enough, you’ll even hear covers of a few Americana faves (Donnybrooks style).

We’ll see you there!

As we look forward to spring, we’re considering some new venues and a few more weekend gigs. Watch this space for updates. There are also plans in the works for a Donnybrooks EP and I’ll update as that moves closer to becoming a reality. For the now though, we’re still at Rare Olde Times Irish Pub every Tuesday night from 8:00 until 10:30. If you can only make it once a month, try shooting for the first Tuesday of the month as that is when most of our friends and family are there resulting in a raucous evening of partying. If the pints are flowing and the crowd seems receptive, we might even get Sandy to lead us all in a stirring rendition of The Unicorn Song. Sláinte!

A big Donnybrooks’ thank you to John O’Toole for his hospitality. We played at O’Toole’s last Saturday night (3/14) and then again on St Pat’s and wow, what a great time. Just a wonderful crowd, ready to sing along, very appreciative, and we can’t wait to go back. A huge bonus for us was the chance to hook up again with our buddies The Havers who had their fiddler pal with them (sorry, but I didn’t get her name) and Mike B wailing away on that sweet-sounding cajon; an exceptional upbeat set from those rockin’ Irish lads from the Tidewater.

Also kudos go out to our good friends at JJ’s Grill in Glen Allen where we close up our St Pat’s celebration. Great food and good times there as we performed to a packed house. We’re looking forward to a return there sometime later in the Spring.

That’s all for now, we’ll see y’all down at the festival where we’ll be the opening act just after the parade. Drop by and see us if you can and Erin Go Bragh.
