A 3 band gala night covering folk, anglo-americana, pop, gypsy jazz, bluegrass and general 'backside-shaking' music!
It’s only taken 6 years but Mad Dog Mcrea are finally coming back to Sheldon!Mad Dog Mcrea blend a unique mixture of folk rock, pop, gypsy jazz, bluegrass and ‘ass-shaking’ music. From self-penned songs of adventure, drinking, love and life, to traditional songs of gypsies, fairies, legless pirates and black flies – Mad Dog never fail to capture their audience with their infectious songs.
In constant demand and having played just about every festival and two-bit dive in Christendom, Mad Dog Mcrea are, in every sense of the word, a live, band – and so much more.
