Info
Halifax- Casino Nova Scotia is thrilled to have international ambassadors of Irish music; The Irish Rovers perform live in the Schooner Showroom. They perform two shows on Monday, March 17 at 4PM and 8PM.
In 1966, "The First of the Irish Rovers", a live album was released. It generated enough excitement to warrant another album, and from this release came the million selling single "The Unicorn", the band's signature song to this day.
Through the 1970's and early 80's, the Rovers brought their magic to television with a weekly series for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, and later, a series on the Global Network in conjunction with Ulster Television in Ireland.
In 1980, The Rovers once again were at the top of the pop and country charts with "Wasn't That a Party". This real-life celebration was written by their friend, after he witnessed one of the band's famous post-show parties. It went on to become an international anthem of good cheer. The band recorded "Grandma Got Run-Over by a Reindeer" in 1982, which since has become a seasonal hit.
The Irish Rovers continue to perform in theatres around the world, after thirty albums they are still with original members George Millar, Joe Millar and Wilcil McDowell. Completing the Irish Rover line-up today is Kevin McKeown, who has been with the band since 1984, and John Reynolds and Wallace Hood, who both joined in 1995.
The Irish Rovers are still passionate about performing and will continue to tour and entertain their fans. Like the Unicorn, the Irish Rovers are legendary, and a good time is guaranteed for all.
