After nearly forty years as founder, leader, and front-man of the legendary Wolfe Tones, Derek Warfield continues to carry Ireland’s musical heritage forward with The Young Wolfe Tones—a dynamic ensemble dedicated to preserving and re-energizing the Irish ballad tradition for a new generation.
Formed in 2008, the group unites Warfield’s decades of experience with the exceptional talents of Damaris Woods (banjo), Eddie Kane (vocals, guitar), Andreas Durkin (keyboards, vocals), Paddy McGrandles (whistles, flute, vocals), and Brent Hopper (vocals, guitar).
