Smiting Shillelagh (shuh-LAY-lee) is the number 1 Irish Punk Rock band of South Jersey (A.K.A. the only Irish Punk Rock band of South Jersey). With grade 2 competition bagpiper, Sean Henry, hardcore hippy stoner guitarist, Mike O'Bohan, music-reading Australian fiddler, Alistair Watson, and local music scene stars Phil Hengy (bass), Dan Noar (flute), and John G (drums), Smiting Shillelagh has developed a sound of its own that seems to shout defiance. The young, the old, and everyone in between can appreciate our music as it mixes traditional and new in a fast, loud, energetic combination that's good for parties, pubs, and any other place where bagpipes and fun are required. We're a new band and are up for hire. You can contact us by email (smitingshillelagh@hotmail.com), messaging our myspace, or by calling one of us.
P.S. If you mess with us, we'll punch yar lights out! If yar cool with us, have a guinness before yar ta be gettin sober!
Oi!
