The Prodigals are one of the most successful bands to emerge from the East-Coast Irish scene. The band members grew up largely in Ireland; their original songs blend a funky and anarchic energy that is pure New York with a passion for the traditional music of Ireland. The band has headlined major venues and festivals throughout the United States, Los Angeles and Las Vegas to Chicago, Boston and Maine, as well as abroad in Canada, Germany and Ireland.
"THE BEST IRISH TRAD-ROCK BAND"
“NYC’S jig-punk answer to the Pogues” - Village Voice
"vibrant Irish rock" - Chicago Sun Times "kick-ass Celtic rock" - New York Post
"indelibly Irish" - New York Times "brilliant" - Irish Voice
“stunning and joyous” – Santa Monica Mirror
""Big Apple cockiness fused with traditional tunes wends its way back home, as New York's answer to The Pogues lands on solid ground. Having detoured to Chicago (via Cavan) these boys' navigation skills leave nothing to chance. Gregory Grene's accordion calls many of the shots, fuelled by the kind of percussive force that NASA would pay dearly for....Swivel the amp right up to eleven and submit to the manic rhythms." – Siobhan Long, The Irish Times, Ireland
"Grene's expertise on accordion and his understanding of Irish music elevates the group as one of the premier Celtic rock bands leading into the 21st century" - All Music Guide (AMG)
"Coming on like an American Oysterband, they kick up the dust in thoroughly convincing fashion." – fRoots, UK
" the best funky-Celtic-folksters doing the rounds...wholly inspirational." - Rock N' Reel, UK
