About

Dean Robinson met Father & Daughter duo Paul & Erin Dube at local Irish sessions and asked if they'd be interested in forming a band. The trio instantly clicked from the very first outing and the rest is history. In their first couple of years Failte has booked numerous successful gigs, as measured by the number of times they have been invited for return performances. Venues Failte has regularly performed include the Irish Ceilidhe Club, Murphy's Providence, Blithewold, Linden Place , Bristol Porch Fest and the Coastal Queen Cruises
