THE TOWN PANTS  

The Pacific Northwest may not be the first place you would expect to hear rollicking Celtic, Folk or World music, but The Town Pants are determined to change that. The Vancouver, Canada-based band combines aspects of Irish traditional, acoustic pop, roots Americana, even Australian and Mexican influences, to create their own unique brand of “West Coast Celtic.” Armed with a pawnshop’s worth of musical instruments, The Town Pants play songs that appeal to young and old alike.

The music of The Town Pants remains in the heart and head long after the music stops. The Keogh brothers, Dave and Duane, lead the band in vocals and instrumentation with banjo and acoustic guitar, teamed with Aaron Chapman on tin whistle, harmonica and vocals. Together with some fiery fiddle and an outstanding rhythm section they generate a rare blend of passion, energy, animation and spirit. The Town Pants are unsurpassed with their fast-paced West Coast Celtic style. Feverish and stampeding, The Town Pants’ lively renditions of traditional and contemporary Celtic-influenced tunes, combined with the group’s original compositions, create a distinctive sound that has attracted fans from around the world. At home, Vancouver fans chose The Town Pants as one of their favourite National Celtic/Traditional Acts in Vancouver’’s Georgia Straight entertainment weekly annual “Best of Vancouver” readers’ poll, where they were shortlisted with such groups as Great Big Sea and Natalie MacMaster. 
So come on down and experience the Clemens Center like you never have before, some seats are coming out the pits and were going to Rock the Shamrock with The Town Pants and Special Guest: 80’s Rock show with TONGUE AND GROOVE!
