Russell Letson, a contributor to Guitar Magazine, wrote the following for Ring of Kerry's Live-in-Concert CD, St. Paddy's Eve.
"Ring of Kerry is in love with the music that the Irish and Scots took with them as they made their way from the Old World to the New. Here are tunes sweet and raucous, rough and smooth; tunes for dancing or drinking or loving or even working; songs about railroads and robbers, farms and pubs and the odd battlefield. The accents here might be mid-American, but the sentiments cross oceans and centuries with ease. This is living music, played live and lively, so raise your glasses and dance and sing along."

Bio
Founded in 2001, St. Cloud, MN based Ring of Kerry borrows its name from a beautiful craggy drive in southwestern County Kerry, Ireland. Its Celtic music, however, is played with a heart much closer to home.
