As part of their US & Canada tour, The Mary Wallopers is coming to the Irving Plaza on October 14, 2023. Later this year, the band will kick off their European Tour 2023 at Rotterdam Rotown, Netherlands, before passing multiple cities in Sweden, Denmark, and Germany.

“The group have endeared themselves and Irish folk music to a new generation, and kept the stories of their fathers and grandfathers alive in song. Their music is upbeat and dynamic and their live performances are simply sensational. The Mary Wallopers in their music and their spirit are quintessentially Irish, and a band I couldn’t recommend seeing live more,” the Hot Press shares.

Brothers Charles and Andrew Hendy, along with Sean McKenna, make up the contemporary Irish folk music ensemble known as The Mary Wallopers. The band started off as a trio, but has now grown to a seven-piece ensemble thanks to their live-streamed performances at Charles and Andrew's house.

Following the release of their top-selling self-titled debut album in October of last year, the band scheduled their first North American tour.

The Wallopers started performing traditional music in taverns, where musicians would perform in exchange for drinks and were familiar with over a hundred tunes. Their single “Cod Liver Oil & The Orange Juice,” from their first EP, 2019’s “A Mouthful of The Mary Wallopers,” became an instant hit and helped propel them to fame.

During the 2020 COVID pandemic, they produced "Stay at Home with the Mary Wallopers," a live-streamed program, to entertain viewers while lockdowns were in effect. They sang, drank beer, and engaged viewers via a chat window, gaining them more than 40,000 followers by the end of the endeavor.

“The Mary Wallopers’ Celtic soul is heavy, but their best moments are their least complex. A raucous final slew of floor-shaking singalongs starts and ends in righteous, booze-sodden nihilism,” the Guardian explains.

For over 150 years, the Irving Plaza has long been a cherished establishment that can hold a maximum of 1,100 individuals. The completely renovated interior has revitalized the entire venue's ambiance while preserving the enchanting 19th-century allure, enhancing the overall live concert experience.
