Folk/Traditional/Cabaret Photo Gallery
Although folk is not strictly related to the showband era,
it was during these same years (55-85) that folk musicians came into their own
as a major force on the Irish entertainment landscape and in many cases shared
the same stages with their showband counterparts. In fact, many folk artists
like Johnny McEvoy and Danny Doyle, ended up fronting showbands after successful
stints on the folk club circuit. Below is a collection of photos of Irish folk
acts
from the 60, 70's and 80's.
