Clover's Revenge

We are a fun loving Irish Pub Band playing traditional and contemporary Celtic music. Every once and awhile, we also throw in something different like a Punk song or a Country song. We have as much fun between the songs as we do during the songs interacting with the audience with toasts, roasts, and other foolish banter. Our songs are fast with the exception of a ballad or two and we play with a fierce energy and precision that we like to call Irish Speed Folk.

Clover’s Revenge was formed with the express purpose of drinking. It seemed like a good idea to practice playing Irish music while we were at it. Our first performance was on St. Patrick’s Day of 2015, and we accomplished our major goal while also putting on a hell of a show at Chester’s Reef in Sarasota. In our first year, we accomplished our major goal forty times, while also entertaining audiences with our version of Pub Music: Irish Speed Folk. While the majority of our songs are Irish classics that are often hundreds of years old, we continue to learn and interpret great songs played by Irish musicians and groups who happen to still be alive. One of our favorites is a punk rock classic from 1581. Some things never change.

While we don’t take ourselves seriously at all, we love and respect the music. Mostly, we relish a crowd that sings with us, claps at the right moments, knows new and bawdy lyrics, and loves to have a good time.

We have our own sound system for a mid-size room and we can also play acoustic.
