As soon as they were old enough to acquire a dubious-looking brown van, Michael and Anthony began touring the country, passing on great ballads in the time honoured folk tradition. By now, there’s hardly a village hall or pub in any hamlet of Ireland that hasn’t yet played host to their electrically-charged performances.
Times have changed, however. With the music industry awash with complex fusion works and variations of Irish music, demand for a truly organic Irish sound has soared. Michael and Anthony caught the crest of this wave, enjoying a success that has seen them play to massive audiences in theatres and folk music clubs across Ireland.
Where The Baileys go, true aficionados follow. Theirs is a gift that transcends national boundaries.
