With the spark ignited over a couple of pints, The Bastard Sons of Ned Giblin was born out of the ashes of the popular San Diego band, Brehon Law, headed up by musician and local pub owner, Ned Giblin who moved back home to Ireland in 2012.
Former band mates Paul Castellanos on vocals, guitar, fiddle, mandolin, banjo and Brad Rehn on drums, are joined by Berklee trained newcomer Just Helland on vocals, guitar, mandolin and tin flute. Often joined by fellow, former bandmate Len Crowley and special guests making each performance unique and inclusive.
All the bastard sons have bloodlines linked to Ireland, Scotland and/or England and a great love and genuine appreciation for their music and heritage.
Their song list includes many of the Irish classic artists such as: The Dubliners, The Waterboys, Christy Moore and Van Morrison along with Scottish and English favorites such as Calendonia and Mull of Kintyre and a few modern hits.
They embrace the laws set down by Ned to; keep the heart light, the Guinness flowing, the gig professional and the concept that all are welcome, ensuring a night of great music and a good time had by all.
