The Coves are a lively folk/country/bluegrass style band that performs all across Ireland. They started in January 2013 when Rodney, the lead singer, and some friends noticed a gap in the market for a band with a similar sound to ‘Mumford and Sons’. Fast forward 10 years, and the group has played at numerous weddings throughout the country.

The Coves can cater to various musical preferences, whether you want to dance a jive, waltz, sing along, or rock out. They play a wide range of songs with their own unique style. The band consists of guitar, drums, fiddle, banjo, mandolin, bass, and four vocalists. From the ‘I’ll tell me ma’ to ‘Sweet child o mine’ to Maniac 2000, the coves have all the tunes covered in their unique energetic style.
