ABOUT THE HARLEYS

Formed in 2010 in Dublin, we are a group of four full time musicians who have worked hard to gain a reputation as being one of the most popular and 'in demand' bands in the country. We bring decades of accumulative experience to each event we perform at and our reputation is our living - 90% of our work is either through referral or repeat business.

All four of us are self taught musicians and have played and toured extensively for years. Our original idea in forming the band was to try bring back the haydays of the 70's and 80's when people used to go out to see a band at the weekend. We wanted to be that band! 

Rehearsals were amazing. Putting a setlist together of your favourite songs was easy - making them sound the way they are supposed to sound was the goal and we really belive that we have achieved this. 

When performing, we never use a set list. Our thoughts on it are, 'How can you?'. Every gig and event is different and we never know until we arrive at a venue what the make up of the crowd is going to be. 'Calling the set' as we go is a skill that only experience will bring and it works for us 100% of the time. 

While we love to play the classics, our repetoire stretches across pretty much all genres. Also, with the volume of work we do, the set is constantly growing. 

We have performed live on The Late Late Show with The RTE Concert Orchestra and have twice in the last three years been the band of choice for Today FM's Annual Ski Trip to Austria. Our journies to the Middle East have become more regular as the poprularity and demand for our set has grown. This year we are to headline the Irish Festival in Novemebr in Bahrain for the second year running.

Our regular corporate clients include Apple, Radio Nova, IFTA's, Topflight and Irish Life to name a few and we are happy that we perform in the nations best live venues every week.
