Galway-based We Banjo 3 has one foot in Irish music and one foot in Americana music, seamlessly combining the virtuosity and precision in each genre’s traditional disciplines with the artful song-craft and infectious live performance of today’s musical landscape.

Galway-based We Banjo 3 blends Irish and Americana music, combining traditional virtuosity with modern songcraft and infectious live performances. Celebrating 10 years, they’ve captivated fans at both Irish and Bluegrass festivals, now headlining shows with their dynamic rhythms and harmonies. The band features two sets of brothers—Enda & Fergal Scahill and David & Martin Howley—whose musical chemistry shines through their banjos, fiddle, mandolin, guitar, and vocals.

We Banjo 3 began as jam sessions among Enda, David, and Martin, evolving into a band that quickly gained popularity. After adding Fergal, their sound grew, leading to a breakthrough at the Milwaukee Irish Festival in 2012. Their high-energy live shows and skillful musicianship made them festival favorites, now headlining major events.

Their upcoming album continues to showcase their songwriting and musicianship, with complex, nimble instrumentation and engaging lyrics. Like previous albums *Roots to Rise Live* and *Haven*, *Open The Road* elevates their music further, cementing their place as a force in the Irish and Bluegrass music scenes.
