A Brief History ... Since its formation in 1993 The Michael Sexton Ceili Band has delighted many audiences in various parts of Ireland with its lively, pulsating dance music. An abundance of experience has been carried into the band by each of its members.
In particular the expertise and background of the band leader Michael Sexton must be noted.
Michael spent 17 years playing accordion with award winning and popular bands such as The Laictin Naofa Ceili Band and The Kilfenora Ceili Band.
Likewise, George Byrt's and Martin Garrihy's in-imitable styles and their wealth of knowledge can be attributed to their previous experience with The Tulla Ceili Band.
"We would like to dedicate this collection of dance music to our many fans around the country who encourage and supported us from the very beginning. We hope they continue to do so".
Recording Artistes:
Michael Sexton (leader) Accordion
