Gaelic Storm has mastered the art of evoking the traditionalism of Irish folk music and balancing it with the primitive sparse sound of rising folk artists such as Monsters of Men and Mumford and Sons.
Though their sound is straightforward and instantly relatable there are many interesting complexities that build it up. They use very basic chord progressions, but dress up this structure with a large conglomerate of instruments. The expected instruments such as guitars, vocals and bass provide the framework for their music; however, they lavish their sound with cheerful splashes of melody from varying and obscure instruments like the penny whistle, violin and bagpipes. They use a unique assortment of stringed instruments as well as such variations of mandolins and acoustic guitars and even a Greek guitar-like instrument called a Bouzouki. Perhaps the most exciting aspect of their sound is their rich percussive undertone. Percussionists, Patrick Murphy and Ryan Lacey, use a plethora of drum instruments from all around the world. They use everything from spoons to the Brazilian Samba to the appropriately selected Irish frame drum, the Bodhran. The rhythmically timed plucks of the string instruments work masterfully with the percussion and strongly emphasize the beat of the song. The forceful sway of their music does nothing but urge the audience to dance along and this is exactly what you will find if you attend a Gaelic Storm concert.
Though the group hails from Santa Monica, California, their sound is as Celtic as imaginable. Not only is their sound enlivening, their lyrics for songs as evident in tracks like “The Night I Punched Russell Crowe” are absurdly hilarious and add immensely to the fun tone of their shows.

This show was absolutely fantastic! Gaelic Storm is definitely a must see band for any fan of Celtic music, and also anyone who isn't a fan. Gaelic Storm is the band that turned my sister and friend into Celtic fans. I've been a fan for years and I was so happy to finally have them come to my area!
But the show itself was so high energy. I actually attended a show that was inside an auditorium so it would be hard to get a crowd on their feet. Gaelic Storm did it no problem, they got everyone clapping and having a ton of fun. Craziest part was the donkey riding imitation contest while they sang "Darcy's Donkey." Another amazing part was the drum-off between Ryan and Steve and Patrick, absolutely amazing.
After they kept the energy going for almost two hours, they came outside and signed stuff for everyone who wanted it, took pictures, and were really amazing to their fans. They aren't a pretentious group at all and their down-to-earth attitude is amazing and I'm so glad their just as cool in person as on their albums.
We didn't go due to the Mayor of Chicago and the Governor of Illinois banning all gatherings of more than 250 people. While I think that may not be necessary, it was the given protocol. I am deeply bothered that the Chicago House of Blues saw fit to "Let the show go on" in light of this. I feel that they did so in order to just protect their profits and not have to refund tickets. I will no longer give them my business nor will I ever recommend anyone to attend an event there.

In short - unbelievable! Worth seeing over and over. Their energy level is amazing - never a boring moment. And their open and friendly demeanor is infectious. No matter how you come to the show - you'll leave energized and happy!
The best Gaelic band to come out of the States, or Ireland for that matter.
Fun show! Music from an assortment of their albums, including some new stuff. Sassy and energetic, full of heart and rollicking fiddle & pipes. Likable and accessible folks... I feel like if I bought them a drink they’d sit down and visit with me. Audience was there for fun and we got it.
Having been going to their shows since their first performance at NIU many years ago. We are never disappointed! Love the stories, music and atmosphere they create. If you have never gone to a show, you must! It's as close to Ireland as you can get in DeKalb IL.
We didn't see the show because it was postponed because of the coronavirus scare. We were told to keep our tickets for the rescheduled show.
we were of course disappointed because we do not believe in this scare.
The band had great energy even though this was the final show of their current tour. Incredibly talented musicians and storytellers with a wonderful collective sense of humor. Most fun concert I've been to!
Fantastic show as usual! The music is great fun.The band interacts with the crowd always!! Good setting even if a bit cramped due to weather. Already ready for them to come back!
Keeping it short and to the point.... Excellent show, if you get a chance to see them live on tour go you won't be disappointed. They warmed up Wilmington for the night.
