The Killdares / Press

"Man, these guys have a serious fanbase...The Killdares are a Celtic rock band that blends a power pop sound with a mix of rock ‘n’ roll hooks and a sometimes-traditional Celtic rock flair – thanks to the amazing use of fiddle and bagpipes. The result is an easy-to-listen-to, accessible sound for people of all ages."

"Any band audacious enough to feature electric guitar, fiddle and bagpipes are either heading for unbearable cacophony or one of the most original sounds of the last decade. The Killdares undeniably capture the latter and deftly avoid the former."

Joseph Dilworth - Pop Culture Zoo

"The long reign of Riverdance may have scared away many musicians with affinity and talent for Celtic music. But not The Killdares. They’ve reclaimed the genre, regularly convening in Texas for the meeting of some of the best and brightest minds in music."

S. Anne Durham - Dallas Observer

"Dallasites love this band so much, if there were a category for Best Rock Band in the World, the Killdares would sweep the Metroplex.”

Melanie Haupt - Austin Chronicle

““The Killdares play a genre of music that fits few other bands. Their music is lovely, passionate, and best of all, simply not like anything else.” ”
