For the first time in twenty-five years, the Original Irish Descendants took the stage at Iceberg Alley last night.
The Celtic musicians stepped out to a raucous crowd after an introduction from VOCM’s Greg Smith.
Well that was one for the books, a sold out @icebergalleyNL crowd, ready to hear the original Irish Descendants reunited for the first time in 25 years!

It was the first time in a quarter-century that the original lineup all played together in front of a sold out audience.

The reunion, originally scheduled for 2020, had been building anticipation since the original concert date was postponed due to the pandemic. When announced that it would be a part of Iceberg Alley, the show was the first to sell out.
