Demolition String Band for Borrisoleigh

As part of their fifth Irish tour, the internationally-acclaimed Demolition String Band will be playing in Finn’s Alehouse, Borrisoleigh, on Tuesday, August 28th, at 9pm.

This is a unique opportunity to catch this group in County Tipperary. As part of their Irish tour, Demolition String Band will also be playing in well-known venues such as Matt Molloy’s, Westport, Co Mayo, and festivals such as Dunmore East Bluegrass Music Festival, Appalachian and Bluegrass Music Festival, Omagh, Co Tyrone.

Fueled by a shared passion for classic country, rock ‘n roll, bluegrass and mountain music, singer/songwriter/mandolinist Elena Skye and multi-instrumentalist Boo Reiners have led their NYC-based Demolition String Band for almost two decades, marking their journey with numerous albums and countless miles on the road in the USA and Europe.

Their Woody Guthrie song collaboration 'Go Coney Island, Roll On The Sand' (words by Woody Guthrie/music by Elena Skye) was featured on the 2014 Grammy-nominated 'My Name Is New York: Ramblin’ Around Woody Guthrie’s Town', which featured song collaborations with Billy Bragg, Wilco, and Del McCoury.
