Doonan Family Band

A lively Newcastle Upon Tyne/Irish family members group, with primary users, John ‘Da’ Doonan (d. 8 March 2002; flute, piccolo), Kevin Doonan (fiddle) and Mick Doonan (pipes). The trio are frequently augmented by Phil Murray (bass), and Stu Luckley (acoustic guitar, vocals), and a troupe of Irish stage dancers. A fantastic festival take action, the raised percentage of ex-Hedgehog Pie and Jack port The Lad users means that their units, though acoustic, possess a lot more energy than a number of the ‘electrical’ bands. They often times feature traditional plans of materials by Friend Holly as well as the Beatles, and the like. Murray and Mick Doonan also play in the Wakefield-based spirit and R&B music group, the Solicitors.
