The Muddy River Band

"What could be better than performing to an enthusiastic audience and singing the songs of your musical hero!"
So says Muddy River Band member Willie Headon who along with fellow musicians and singers Pete Kavanagh and Pat Silke perform the songs of their respective music icons Neil Young, Bob Dylan and Van Morrison. These three performers have all been music professionals for many years working as songwriters, performers and record producers both individually and alongside many well known Irish and International artists.

What started out as a one off gig just for fun has exploded into a highly successful music tribute show with standing ovations after every performance. "It was just supposed to be for a bit of enjoyment but the response was so good and the requests for us to do it all again just meant we had to keep the show going" says Pete Kavanagh.

Along with the other exceptional Muddy River Band musicians, Headon, Kavanagh and Silke perform an enthralling set of Young, Dylan and Morrison classics. If you're a fan of any or indeed all of these amazing artists, you simply have to see this show!

The Muddy River Band perform a special acoustic unplugged show at the Dunamaise Arts Centre on Sat 26th Sept. 2026
