In the tradition of Celtic crooners like The Irish Tenors and Phil Coulter, Andy Cooney breathes new life into the music of the Old Sod. Be sure to bring a box of hankies to Cooney's St. Patrick's Day show at Westbury Music Fair: His rendition of 'Shannon River' has been known to make grown men cry.

Despite the raging storm, Andy Cooney led the crowds in singing “You are my sunshine” and other standards at the Traditional Stage. People were smiling, singing and having fun, albeit a little wet while doing so. The storm passed quickly and people assisted the staff with righting overturned tables, setting up chairs.

What a performer! What a show! Andy brings world-class presence and showmanship to every performance on large or small stage. A great voice - a tremendous ability to communicate and a real good friend. His love of music and his way of bringing a warmth to the songs of Ireland and beyond makes him one of our favorites. He's not to be missed.

Andy has enlisted the lovely Irish Sopranos to bring a celebration of happiness to your venue; a memorable experience for every audience.
The Irish Sopranos are the poster girls for beauty and talent! With their sensational voices, stunning good looks, extensive training, and international experience, the Irish Sopranos are the real deal. They WOW audiences at every stop, bringing crowds to their feet throughout each concert. Wendy Dwyer, Kay Lynch, and Deirdre Masterson are the crème de la crème of Irish classical vocal talent.
All three ladies have had extensive classical training and each possesses a very distinctive, very individual voice. Combined, they comprise lyric, lyric coloratura, and dramatic soprano, producing a wonderful harmonic texture, lending themselves perfectly to the ravishing harmonies for which The Irish Sopranos are known.
But make no mistake, The Irish Sopranos go beyond opera in their concert performances! Their repertoire includes Broadway, pop, and yes … some of the best Irish vocals you will ever hear. Their delivery of the music of their homeland is passionate, commanding, and brilliant.
To complete Forever Irish, Andy Cooney and The Irish Sopranos will be accompanied by Anthony Cooney's World Famous Irish Band!
