Ar Ais Aris, (ah-rash ah-reesh) Irish for “back again” symbolizes where we are as a band today. Since 1995 we’ve been artfully performing the music we love! Our performances cross the boundaries of both Irish and American traditional ballads along with insightful original tunes. Expect nothing but great music and great humor from an Ar Ais Aris performance. With guitars, bodran, hammered dulcimer and keyboards you’ll hear a wide range of music from some of the greatest songwriters and performers such as Christy Moore, Jimmy MacCarthy, Tommy Makem, Stan Rogers and a host of others.

Ar Ais Aris is:

Bill Fallon (vocals, guitars, banjo), Ben Doran (vocals, hammered dulcimer), Michael Staszak (vocals, keyboard, guitar, accordion), John Roche (vocals, bodran, guitar).
