Product Description: FROM THE CREATORS AND PRODUCERS OF THE IRISH PHENOMENON CELTIC WOMAN COMES THE NEXT GENERATION IN IRISH BALLAD MUSIC, THE HIGH KINGS. Finbarr Clancy, Martin Furey, Brian Dunphy and Darren Holden - renowned vocalists and musicians - have come together to form the hottest Irish folk and ballad group to emerge since The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem electrified the worldwide folk revival of the 1960s. The musical producer is the highly acclaimed David Downes, who is the musical genius behind Celtic Woman and formerly the musical director of Riverdance. He brings intricate harmonies and driving rhythms to The High Kings songbook, giving them a freshness and sparkle that is infectious. A rousing TV special was filmed in Dublin and is available on DVD (The High Kings: Live in Dublin).

Customer Reviews
Cried When I played This
Granted, three of my grandparents were Irish, one from county Kilkenny, but still it is embarrassing for a grown man to be blubbering like this. I was not a big fan of Celtic Women, but The High Kings touch something deep down in my Irish soul. First I saw them on PBS, then I bought the CD, and lastly I purchased the DVD. I am glad I did because there are songs and drum routines on the DVD that are not on the CD, and the appreciative Dublin audience adds tons of ambience to the proceedings. The High Kings are fantastic and the band that plays with them equally so.
They are playing in Sacramento, where I live, on Oct. 16th '08 I believe, and I only hope I can get tickets to that event. If you like Irish music, and particularly Irish folk music in the style of the Clancy brothers, or American folk music in the style of The Kingston Trio, you will love this DVD.

It is exactly what I wanted
I looked for this at other sites and found it here, which I suspected I would. Bought it and am happy with it and the speed of delivery, the whole shopping Amazon experience. Thank you

review of High Kings DVD
The High Kings I received the DVD in very quick time, it was in excellent condition, and we have enjoyed watching it very much. It makes you feel almost like you're right there sitting in the audience

High Kings Live DVD
Everyone should see this at least once, if only to gain a bit of understanding about the Irish people and spirit.
It's a fun outing and views of the audience add to the effect.
Irish music done in the traditional way inspires singing along and even dancing.
Well worth the price and time to enjoy.

The High Kings DVD
This has to be the most recent Irish band whose music and singing is super. Every word is enunciated so that the songs would be easy to learn for those of us who want to. G. W. Short
