The Nooks

The Band was formed in 2008 when founding members John McCaffrey and Chris Doran set off on a trip to Galway to catch an Alabama 3 gig. After a series of coincidences they ended up jamming with Larry Love and his band. The guys were then asked to join Alabama 3 on stage for later gigs on their tour. This gave Chris and John the drive to pick up their guitars and a bag of harps and begin doing what they do best.

Their quirky adaptations of modern and not so modern rock and pop classics soon became a talking point locally. After their success in the National Stars of Our Bars competition the Nooks were known throughout Ireland for their unique style and charisma.

Since this the Nooks have had a hectic schedule playing to packed houses all over Ireland and beyond. Their Residency in the small village of Carlingford has created a haven for music lovers. Their acoustic and unplugged show has been running for three years now and is as exciting and vibrant as it was when it began.
