Pub Tunes & Up-Tempo Irish

Barley Saints at the Dogwood Center on March 19

The Barley Saints will perform in the Dogwood Center's Black Box on Saturday, March 19 at 7:30 p.m. Join us and you will experience upbeat, Celtic rock live at the Dogwood!

The Barley Saints specialize in a mix of Irish pub tunes, up-tempo Irish folk songs, and fast paced traditional dance tunes, supported by driving rock beats.

The West Michigan band was founded in 2017 by Ray Veen and Scott Sheldon. Originally called “Knotwork”, the band coalesced around the rough idea of playing up-tempo Irish tunes for pubs and parties. Then, the band’s good friend Dan Seabolt of the Oat-Bran Boys, suggested they contact one of his former fiddle students, Hannah Kroll.  After joining the guys at one practice, Hannah brought a fresh perspective, a youthful exuberance, and pure, unadulterated talent.  With a renewed sense of hope and energy, the band re-invented themselves as The Barley Saints, and began booking shows in earnest. Other band members include Justin Brady on guitar and mandolin and Will Vauters on percussion.
