Irish-born folksinger Tom O'Carroll brings a wealth of songs, stories, wit and humour to his performances. Whether playing a plaintive air on the tin whistle or singing and playing rousing traditional songs to the accompaniment of the guitar or the bodhrán (Irish drum), Tom's lively performance is guaranteed to bring the charms and fun of the Emerald Isle to your venue! (Check Tom O'Carroll out on You Tube.)
We had a celebration of life event at all for 3 hours with about 40+ people there. My grandmother loved all things Irish so we wanted to have some nice background music during the event. Tom was AMAZING! He played a variety of instruments, lots of songs, sound level was perfect for what we were looking for and very nice and professional.
I would HIGHLY recommend him for any event! We are already planning to book him next year for what would be her 90th bday celebration and we will have him do the story-telling/singing for that. He understood that only the singing would be appropriate for our event, and it was!!
