Gig is ON!

Hi all!

The weather is not keeping us from playing tonight!

Granted, it is a private party...but it is in a public place! So, if you happen to slip in for some great beer or awesome pizza, I'm sure no one will throw you out!

This video was shot Friday night. Sorry about the sound quality. We will see about getting some sound recordings up in the next few days. Greg had a new digital recorder to play with so we should have something!

We are starting off strong, folks!

While we did play our first official gig in Hastings, Nebraska, at the Barn Festival, we are following it with a biggie!

O'Malley's Irish Pub in Weston, MO, is a hot spot for Irish music in the Kansas City area and it is the coolest damn pub you will ever go to! We will be playing Friday and Saturday, November 6 & 7, from 8pm - midnight!

COME JOIN THE CRAIC!!!

And So It Begins...

Hello!

Allow ourselves to introduce...ourselves.

We are Miles From Dublin. We are located in Kearney, Nebraska, and we are taking new steps in a new direction in the world of Irish music. We are made up of 4 former members of The Wild Clover Band, and we have been playing Irish music together for 9 years but we know that there is so much more Irish music and culture to learn and absorb. Our common focus in this new endeavor is to play Irish music as well as we can, while still putting our own influences and personality into the music, and provide a tight and craic-filled show for everyone!

Band Line Up

Aaron Svoboda - Bodhran, percussion, vocals

Tim Sharkey - Guitar, vocals

Mike Metzger - Banjo, Bouzouki, Mandolin

Greg Tesdall - Flute, Whistles

We will have a website soon, but for right now this blog will be your source of information. Please check back here often as things will be moving fast and furious...both information-wise and musically!

SLAINTE!!!
