Description
"Irish Music blends with folk-rock in a masterful presentation of familiar jigs and reels. Playful creativity with a traditional core makes The Wexford Boys both authentic and energetically original. And when they break out the pub songs, you're bound to sing along."
-Bonny Hart, WBZC 88.9 FM
The Wexford Boys have become a familiar name on the Philadelphia/So. Jersey Irish music scene. Playing together as a duo for the past five years, The Wexford Boys have developed a sound that blends their diverse musical influences with Irish traditional music and song. Bringing more than 40 years of combined musical experience to the stage, Rob Flaherty (guitar, mandolin, vocals) and Jason Pfeiffer (whistles, flutes, bodhran) present audiences with lively sets of Irish traditional music seasoned with the sounds of reggae, folk-rock, jazz and classical music. The band's 2003 debut release, "Seems Like Only Yesterday ..." features unique treatments of well-known traditional songs, reels and jigs, along with several original compositions.
Since 1999, The Wexford Boys have been playing to enthusiastic audiences throughout Philadelphia and New Jersey. Some of the highlights include performances at the Kimmel Center Atrium, the Irish Center in Philadelphia and a three-year run at the annual Smithville Fall Celtic Classic. In all, the band has played over 250 shows since 1999 in settings ranging from pubs to parks to the concert stage.
