The Folk Group was formed on the 15th of August 1995 in Bradshaw’s Pub when founder members Dick Ross, Larry de Clair, Mike Mc Inerney and Mike Minihan decided to get together every Tuesday evening to play music.
When Bradshaw’s closed for a period of time, the group found a welcome and a new home in Herbert’s, Sallymount, to continue the enjoyment and the friendship.
Musicians, singers, storytellers, and poets gather together to share all types of music.Over the years they have been joined by visitors from all over the world and have had songs performed in Thai, German, French, Polish, English, Irish and most recently Ukrainian.The variety of country music, traditional, instrumental, pop, gospel and yes even rap ensures that life is never boring.
Every body is invited to participate and they are given their turn to perform and to practice with attention, support, encouragement, respect and great appreciation.

Heritage Week talk at the tomb of Gen. Sir Richard Bourke
2026-08-23 15:00 - 16:00 | All Saints, Stradbally, Limerick, V94 X6H7
Dr Paul O Brien will give a talk at the tomb of Gen. Sir Richard Bourke of Thornfield House at 3 pm on Sunday, August 23rd to celebrate the bicentenary of the latter’s governorship of the Cape of South Africa.
The 2026 Bicentenary offers an excellent opportunity to celebrate a remarkable Limerick figure whose influence extended far beyond Ireland. Few people associated with Co. Limerick have left such a lasting legacy.
General Sir Richard Bourke (1777–1855) was one of the most distinguished Irish colonial administrators of the 19th century. He was appointed as Governor of the Cape Colony in 1826 and arrived at the Cape in February of the same year as Lieutenant-Governor of the Eastern Districts.
Bourke’s administration is generally regarded as progressive. Among his achievements were:
* reforming the civil administration and judicial system;
* encouraging greater freedom of the press;
* reorganising local government and public finance.
There will be live links to the Cape Town, Melbourne and Peru.
Thornfield House is a proud member of Historic Houses of Ireland.
