Hi Shamrockers,  

Thanks for your interest and support! Our 2009 performances included Taneytown Cafe, three "First Saturday" events in downtown Frederick, the Coffee Table in Whittier, a Partners In Hope benefit, a Saint Patrick's Ceilidh at Frederick Coffee Company and International night at Oakdale Elementary School. We're hoping that 2010 finds us equally as busy.

Big news for us!!! -- we're slated to be one of the headliner bands at FREDERICK CELTIC FESTIVAL on May 8, 2010. Who knew that Frederick's Worst Irish Band would be good enough to play on the main stage?

We've continued to expand our repertoire with INFECTIOUS songs from Ireland, Scotland and Canada, played and sung with enthusiasm and love. Recent new songs include THE AULD TRIANGLE, THE LEAVING OF LIVERPOOL and I KNOW MY LOVE.

Our current lineup consists of Jillian Trawick (vocals & tin whistle), Natalie Duggan (vocals & guitar), Doug Chapin (guitars), Greg Jividen (upright bass), Rick Johns (percussion & vocals), Bill Rhyner (vocals & guitar), Ben Trawick (vocals & mandolin) and Gary Hicks (vocals, accordion & melodica). Aaron Trawick mans the soundboard. Award-winning young Irish dancer Gabrielle McCoy graces many of our shows with her high-stepping energy. Ted and Susie Tomalewski often come to dance as well.

And friends old and new show up at these events to sing along and cheer us on. Thanks again! We'll try to keep our website updated for your convenience. If you're a FACEBOOK user, become a member of "That Raucous Crew Community" to receive e-mail announcements and communicate with other Shamrockers.
