Since they first joined voices in 1998, The Irish Tenors have made countless traditional treasures breathe with new life. Moreover, they have proven themselves gifted interpreters of a wide range of material, with such songs as “My Heart Will Go On” (from “Titanic”), “Fairytale of New York” (previously recorded by Kirsty MacColl and The Pogues) and even Jimmy Kennedy’s “South of the Border (Down Mexico Way).” These songs live comfortably in their repertoire alongside “Danny Boy,” “Whiskey in the Jar” and “Fields of Athenry.”
The Irish Tenors’ powerful vocal line up of Finbar Wright, Anthony Kearns and Ronan Tynan are unquestionably the leading brand of this genre. All classically trained singers, each having performed in leading concert halls across the world, together they combine to produce a sound and concert experience which touches hearts and stirs the emotions. Happy songs of celebration and humor, mixed with touching melodies and songs that warm the heart.
