The High Kings
The High Kings are Finbarr Clancy, Darren Holden, Brian Dunphy,and newest member Paul O’ Brien. The High Kings formed in June 2007 when Dunphy, Holden, Clancy, and former member Martin Furey were asked by David Kavanagh to join a new Irish ballad group after he noticed a dearth of bands specializing in traditional Irish music.
In 2012, the band performed for President Obama in Moneygall, Ireland, leading to an invitation later that year to perform at the White House for a St. Patrick’s Day celebration. Widely regarded to be at the forefront of Irish folk, the High Kings continue to set the bar extremely high, selling out venues across the globe.
