Background notes
Archive material and source history
The Wedding Band formed in Westport, Co. Mayo in 2006, with brothers Brian and Declan Coyne and their friend Paddy Casey. They started playing traditional Irish melodies at local gigs, building a following around their folk sound.
Their song "I Take Your Hand" became popular after a festival performance in 2009, eventually reaching the top of the Irish charts. That same year they released their debut album "The First Dance," which also charted well. Other songs like "She Said Yes" and "Thumper" followed.
In 2019, Paddy Casey left the band and was replaced by bassist Tadhg Hopkins. The group has continued performing and recording since then, with Michael Quinn on keyboards joining the core lineup.
