The Wild Rovers: June 2009

Look at that perddy red-hot accordion!

The Wild Rovers

The Wild Rovers formed in 2003 when founding members Devin Avey, Kyle Griffith, Todd Kitch, Troy Kitch, Jorn Pahnke, and Martin Sweet discovered that they all shared a passion for Irish music. After a few practice sessions the guys performed some covers and traditional Irish songs at the Poet and Patriot and the Wild Rovers were born.

A few years later the Wild Rovers are still performing and evolving musically. Since their early days the Wild Rovers have added fiddle player John Davies and vocalist Lauren Wahl, as well as bringing in Geoffrey Dunton and Ryan Zash to replace some of the original members as they moved on to other stages of life.
