We Banjo 3 Live from Ireland will be livestreamed at 5 p.m. Saturday, March 13, by The Opera House at Boothbay Harbor.

All four band members will be together and performing live on stage for the first time since the pandemic shut down concerts exactly one year ago. Tune in for this very special March show from the stunning Pearse Lyons Distillery in Dublin, Ireland.

A great warm up for St. Patrick’s Day! Debuting in the U.S. in 2012, We Banjo 3 has since emerged as fast-rising touring darlings in the country that two of the members now call home. The Galway, Ireland, and Nashville-based quartet — comprised of two sets of brothers, Enda and Fergal Scahill and Martin and David Howley — continually push musical boundaries while maintaining an unwavering devotion to the essential audience experience.

The band seamlessly converge the shared and varied traditions of Americana, bluegrass, and celtic music with pop-sensible songcraft to create a truly unique and gratifying signature sound. Brilliantly commanded instruments — banjo, fiddle, mandolin, guitar and percussion — effortlessly elevate lead singer David Howley’s propulsive voice.

Live on stage, their songs carry the listener along until, at the perfect moment, the band crescendos into catchy choruses with pitch perfect harmonies. We Banjo 3 deliver their music with such palpable rapport, stunning precision, and infectious energy, it’s impossible to pigeonhole what kind of listener might suddenly consider themselves a WB3 fan. With recent stunning performances at such broad ranging festivals Merlefest, BottleRock, Summercamp, ROMP, Wintergrass and others, enthusiasts of almost every genre of music are taking notice.
