The brain child of a future banker and a drop out bartender, The Narrowbacks are a fresh voice for songs and stories old and new. After some late night sing songs, a couple whiskeys and a few lost jobs we came up with a young punk attitude that found itself running through the veins of an old time folk band. The Narrowbacks: American First, Irish Always.
The Pogues are the biggest inspiration for any young irish music in the irish "diaspora" being London, Liverpool, Boston or in this case New York. Check the Narrowbacks out!!!
