The band’s inception traces back to June 2007 when Clancy, Dunphy, Holden, and former member Martin Furey were invited to form a new Irish ballad group by David Kavanagh. Kavanagh recognized a niche in the market for bands specializing in traditional Irish music, and it quickly became evident during their initial studio rehearsal that the blending of their individual voices created something truly extraordinary. One contributing factor to their distinctive sound is their proficiency in playing a total of 13 different instruments, crafting a unique musical atmosphere that continues to captivate audiences.
This year signifies a pivotal moment for The High Kings as they embark on their most ambitious project to date – the release of their eighth studio album, “The Road Not Taken,” and an extensive tour that includes their debut performances in Canada.
Darren Holden, one of the band members, expressed his gratitude for the overwhelming response from their fans: “The response has been absolutely incredible … when you hit the ground, you do it knowing it won’t last forever. Because the music industry is so fickle, I thought we’d last maybe five years, but I’m happy to be proven wrong. In fact, our audiences are bigger than ever.” Holden highlighted the remarkable dedication of their fan base, with supporters traveling from all corners of the world to attend their shows, with one fan attending more than 200 performances.

Holden emphasized the unique magic of performing live, stating, “Every audience is like the first time you’ve been on stage. Some days, you’re not feeling it … but about five minutes into the show, the energy of the audience kicks in and you remember this is why we’re doing this.” He described an unexplainable deep connection between the band and their audience that continues to inspire and motivate them.
