The Irish Descendants, hailing from the rugged shores of Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada, form a folk group deeply rooted in the traditional sounds and stories of Ireland's rich musical heritage. Since their formation in the early 1990s, the band has become synonymous with the Newfoundland Celtic music scene, proudly championing the narrative of Irish immigrants and their descendents in the New World. Their music serves as a bridge between the old world charm of Irish folk tunes and the storytelling spirit of the Atlantic Canadian experience, blending the two into a unique and vibrant sound.

With an extensive catalog of albums, The Irish Descendants have touched the hearts of listeners through their lilting melodies and poignant lyrics. Their album "The Irish Descendants Christmas" adds a Celtic twist to the holiday season, while "So Far So Good. The Best of The Irish Descendants" delivers a compilation of their most-loved tracks, encapsulating the energy and passion that have defined their longstanding career. "Southern Shore" showcases the band's mastery in crafting music that pays homage to the themes of maritime life and the cultural tapestry of their homeland. Through their storytelling and performances, The Irish Descendants continue to keep the spirit of Irish music alive and thriving, far across the Atlantic waves.
