Four Men and a Dog

Storming out of Ireland, Four Men and a Dog, melds traditional Irish melodies with everything from country swing to jazz and even rap.

Cathal Hayden, one of the finest fiddlers in Ireland, left the group Arcady to join Four Men. Gino Lupari, the group's extra-large sized percussionist and comedian, also provides vocals. Kevin Doherty brings a country influence to the band with his song writing and guitar playing. Gerry O'Connor is best known for his talents on the banjo, but he also picks up a fiddle from time to time. The group has left crowds laughing in Ireland, across Europe and North America.
