Description
The Ireland Brothers were born in Peterborough Ontario Canada and raised in the rolling hills of Northumberland county. Coming from a musical family the brothers were never far from the stage. The band was formed in 2004 and has toured Canada extensively performing at theatres, festivals and of coarse the many legendary bars across the country. They've shared the stage with many great Canadian and international artists such as Greg Keelor and Bazil Donovan(Blue Rodeo), Stephen Fearing(Blackie & The Rodeo Kings), The Barenaked Ladies, Corb Lund & The Hurtin Albertians, Charlie Major, The Sadies, The Good Brothers, Justin Rutledge, Elliot Brood, Ronnie Hawkins Hawks and many more.
In 2008 they released their debut album "Far From The City Lights" at one of their favorite venues The Dakota Tavern in Toronto Ontario. The Ireland Brothers bring a high energy show to the stage with their own twist of Folk-Rock Alt-Country Roots music. "Its definitely a live performance to see"
A highlight for the brothers has been playing The Havelock Country Jamboree Canada’s Largest Live Country Music and Camping Festival in 2004 and again in 2009. In 2013 Dylan Ireland formed the group "Express & Company" along with fellow Peterborough musician Melissa Payne. Express & Company's single "Carry me along" went to #2 on the CBC radio top 20 in 2013.Dylan also released his first solo album "Every Other Night" in 2018. The Ireland Brothers continue writing and performing today and look forward to seeing everyone down the road!
Inspired by some of the last century’s most iconic country sounds, from Faron Young to Brian Setzer, Nicholas Campbell first picked up the guitar at age 10 and was gigging by 11. Having found a fresh start during the pandemic, Nicholas began playing consistently with his band, The Two Meter Cheaters, who quickly rediscovered their groove as live shows began to become an option once again—and they wasted no time in seizing the opportunity. The band worked to release Campbell’s debut album, Livin’ and Other Western Ideas in 2021, combining elements of rockabilly, western swing, and good old-fashioned honky tonk. The result was a brisk, invigorating album that feels as fresh as it does familiar. The band has enjoyed worldwide coverage and airplay since, spanning from Western Canada to Spain, to Italy, and beyond.With Campbell’s new single and the album to come, Gonna Have A Ball Tonight, the group has shifted their tone to include a more rock n’ roll-centric sound, adding a renewed breath of energy and excitement to Campbell’s signature country sensibilities. This is the latest evolution of an emerging musician, but also a return to form, as '50s style rock was the first genre to ever capture Nicholas’ fascination as a beginning player.“I’m really glad about how this album came together, and I feel very fortunate that I was able to work on it with the folks who did. I’m very proud of everyone who was involved and I’m really looking forward to getting it out into the world.”
