March Madness....

So, that was an epic month.... our Hong Kong debut plus the usual shenanigans in Singapore, both of which kept us pretty busy (understatement of the year...).

If you follow us on Instagram, Facebook or Twitter (and you should!) you may have seen a few photos and videos of us doing what we do best, and if you were lucky enough to be at any of our shows we really hope you will upload your photos / videos and tag us, or just email them to us and we will share with the world!

In the meantime.... here is a taste of one of the gigs inside Molly Malone's, which I hope will be repeated somewhat when we head back there tonight for our last gig of the month...

Hope we see you all soon! Sláinte!

Ready for The Craic....?

If you are lucky enough to be a member of NUSS, the party starts tonight for you down at SunTec! We will be on stage in the members bar from 7pm...

The rest of you will have to wait and catch us at Molly Malone's late Friday night (after The Cans), or at 10pm Saturday, or on the main festival stage on Sunday at 8.30pm.

And when you do see us, please do tag us on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and whatever other cool social media platforms spring up and become trendy over the weekend.....

Like us please! Go on, go on, go on! Ye will, ye will, ye will!

International Bright Young(ish) Things!

Yeah, I know, we keep promising to post more often, but we're always too busy rehearsing (read, down the pub)....

That said, the band have been putting together some craic-ing new songs, and this year we get to showcase them all on foreign shores as well as our usual Singapore shenanigans! So if you are in Hong Kong or Singapore, check out our tour dates (on the Gigs page) and get down to see us. We even have tour t-shirts this year - look at us!!!

In the mean time, here are a few new pictures from our recent photoshoot, courtesy of Jonty! Don't we make a handsome bunch....? Don't we........?

New Look, New Material!

Well, not that new.... we have had this look since Kunal left to be replaced by Zac on the drums in time for this year's St. Pat's.... and the "new" songs are actually pretty old trad songs, although we are certainly taking a new approach to them.

Get down to Molly Malone's tomorrow night (Friday 6th) and check it out!

We don't post much, do we!?

Yes, it has been almost a year between posts - again. And we are only posting to say we have a new guitarist - again. And a gig coming up that you can check him out at - again.

We don't get out of the stable much, it must be said, but we are making a concerted effort to play a little bit more than just the St Patrick's weekend.... so first up is this coming Friday (February 3rd) at Molly Malone's on Circular Road!

Sadly Kyle had to leave back to the USA, but Alex, Nev, Zhong Ren and Kunal have been hard at work in the studio with new boy Jordan to bring him up to speed, and to introduce some craic-ing new songs and tunes to the set. So we hope you can all make it down on Friday - but if not, have no fear! We are also playing at Molly's on March 3rd and then at the St Patrick's Festival from 17th to 19th March!

See you all soon!

The All New Lineup is coming at ya!

The new lineup of The Craic Horse - from left to right:
Kyle (guitar / vox); Zhong Ren (bass); Alex (vox /
fiddle / mando); Nev (whistles / sax); Kunal (drums)

Yep, we know it's been a while since we last posted. But then, it's been a while since we played. With various individuals unable to commit to the band at different times, it gradually dawned on us that we might need to regroup and recruit...

But now we are ready. One gig under the bridge last week as a kind of test run, and now we are raring to go for St. Pat's! With three gigs over the weekend, it's going to be a whole heap of fun at Molly Malone's Irish Pub on Circular Road...

We look forward to seeing you there - where you can meet the new Horses!

What's the Craic?

The Craic Horse have been officially around for almost a year, which is a mere blink of the eye in some respects - but a lifetime in others! During that time literally tens of their fans have asked "why is there no handy website we can visit, for all our Craic addiction needs?"... let it never be said that the lads don't listen to their fans (except when they get requests for Danny Boy), for the page you are now feasting your eyes upon is indeed The Craic Horse website!

But there's more... if you click the link on top that says "The Craic?" you will find yourself faced with a few links, to our Facebook, Twitter and Instagram accounts. That way you can have the Craic every day, in so many ways!

There are also links up top that will tell you a bit about the band, introduce you to the lads who play in it, tell you where the gigs are, and take you through to the vids on their YouTube page. Oh, and there is a page all about me too, the horse who made it all possible! You can friend me on Facebook through that page, if you like...

Hope you like the site... I had to take time away from my golf practice to get it all set up. But if you have any suggestions on how I can improve it, feedback is welcome - just email me!

Right... back to the fairways!

Sláinte mhaith,

Craic Horsey
