Kilnaboy was hatched in the cold dank Feb of 2004. Comprising of drunken boys on heat with a mission to spread their own peculiar brand of dirty, filthy folkery pokery to the world. Bringing traditional folk into line with the aid of punk and roots undertones. The eclectic brand of upbeat magic and madness will have you jumping from table to table and flailing the dance floor wildly.

Kilnaboy, the name, hails from a tiny village on the West Coast of Ireland. Prior to the band forming, a tour of Ireland was undertaken; five people, camping gear, 2 guitars, a mandolin, a bodhran and a Buddhist.... in a Fiesta, a cosy trip indeed.

Kilnaboy are:

Mr Daf plinky-plonky mandolin/vocals (Cornish Heritage)
Mr Jay pikey guitar/vocals (Irish blood)
Mr Bri bi-sexual bass guitar (Scotsman)
Mr Will genius piano accordion/piano (Welsh bra)
Mr Gordon phallic didj/djemebe (Maltese)

Kilnaboy also enlist the help of others. Guest Bodhran from 'Screaming Big Mark Canton' and fiddle from the lovely Laura Bones. Also jumping in on kit drums from time to time is our ever-versatile recording madman, Mark from The qstation. Last but not least, Outhouse Al blowing down his Gob-Iron.

Usual haunts of the band are the sweaty clubs n pubs of Cardiff, drinking and cavorting excessively in The Howardian, Journeys, Callaghan‚s and the Kings. The band are very surprised they are actually allowed on these premises anymore.

Kilnaboy gig hard, play hard and like their drugs hard, find them, hug them, kiss them and caress them.
