Overview
The brain child of Kirk McWhorter and Tim Leonard from the critically acclaimed Celtic band 'Kilbrannan' 'Penny Whiskey' promises to offer the best in acoustic music from both Ireland and Scotland along with home grown bluegrass and folk influences.
The foundation of 'Penny Whiskey' is the melodic vocals of Kirk, who also plays guitar, banjo, bodhran and whistles, backed up by the solid playing of Tim on acoustic guitar and mandolin. The quartet is rounded out by Jon Carlson on bass, acoustic guitar and mandolin, Paul Kneis also on guitar, mandolin, and flute, Dan Lelito on bass, Paul Runfola on electric guitar and highlighted with the bagpipes by Rob Greenwalt - and of course, everybody sings... including the audience!
With audience participation songs, rousing pub sings, comedy tunes and tearful ballads, 'Penny Whiskey' offers something for everyone.
