Led by Irish author, playwright, and songwriter Larry Kirwan, Black 47 broke onto the scene with a CD produced by The Cars' Rick Ocasek and raucous, heartfelt, and intelligent performances. Years of relentless touring and nine albums later, the band has become a cornerstone of modern Celtic rock.
Band/artist history
Black 47 espouses an unblinkingly political and thoroughly Irish form of rock 'n' roll, with songs covering topics from the Northern Ireland conflict to civil rights and urban unrest in contemporary New York. Black 47 earned their chops playing the pub scene in Manhattan and self-producing their first indie record, Black 47, before converting The Cars' Ric Ocasek to the cause and gaining mainstream attention with their second album, Fire Of Freedom. The band has produced nine albums to date.
