The Dubliners are one of the best known bands in the Celtic music world. They got together in 1962 and were soon recording album after album together. Their first hit single “Seven Drunken Nights” launched them into international popularity and frequent touring. A stint with The Pogues brought them a new audience and more top hits.

But what seems most interesting to me is that The Dubliners are THE band one should know about when talking about pub songs. Whenever you go to any store and look for a compilation of traditional Irish songs or pub songs, you will find The Dubliners. They seem to have or be on more compilation albums than any other Celtic band out there!
