An Irish Blessing to all!
During these past months, many have stopped us on the streets in passing and asked when and where they would find us making music. Thank you to each of you for your interest and support! The Irish Creme Band does not have any future commitments and is on a permanent hiatus. Music has been and continues to be a joy and privilege, however, the time is not afforded to continue “working” as we have. “May the road rise up to meet you, the wind be always...
Sitt’in it out …
Yep, as all bands do, Irish Creme is putting the cap on the bottle for a while. Four years of working on great music, for great friends and fans, great venues, and just great fun, has worn us all out.

Merry Christmas would be right...

After everyone in the band shows up to a show location to unload and begin set up after a long work day and or work week we often look in the eyes of the other and see the silent question… why do we do this? It only takes a few minutes of making music as a team and seeing the smiles of those seated to listen to remind us… oh yes, this is why we do this. Music is universally a healing...
Baileys…Irish Creme
A perfect pairing… “Doc” Baileys and Irish Creme! This was a recipe for a lovely evening. The band had the sweet privilege of spending a beautiful June gathering at the historic site of Jones Ranch with Doc, Betty, friends and farm animals. A couple of six packs of Guinness, banana chocolate chip bars thanks to Barbara and just good ‘ole finger picking on the deck, life just got better. Thank you Doc for your warm welcome, we...
