The Voices of Ireland

The combination of Don Stiffe, Ger O’Donnell, and Trevor Sexton is one of the most exciting things happening in Irish music in recent times. Ger O’Donnell has exploded onto the scene and cemented his place in the genre with six chart topping hits in Ireland and collaborations with Dolores Keane, Cherish the Ladies, Sharon Shannon, and Paul Brady, among others. A true multi-instrumentalist, Ger is perhaps best known for his voice and mastery of the acoustic guitar. Known for his powerful voice, amazing stage presence, and exceptional skills across a variety of instruments, Trevor Sexton is also a phenomenal songwriter with his own chart-topping hits. Together they have been selling out venues all over the world with regular tours in the UK, Europe, Scandinavia, the US, and back home in Ireland. The duo has also toured with Cherish the Ladies where they teamed up with Don Stiffe, and the combination of the three voices has become a phenomenon. Don is one of the greatest singer/songwriters to have emerged on the Irish folk scene, receiving critical acclaim and awards both at home and abroad. These three powerhouses of Irish song bring together outstanding vocals, rich harmonies, and world-class musicianship for an unforgettable experience.
