We like whiskey and pretty girls... need anymore be said?

With songs about whiskey, pretty girls, and more whiskey, Whiskey First brings high-energy takes on traditional tunes from the Emerald Isle. Add a few originals and a healthy splash of humor, and these actors-turned-musicians serve up a foot-stomping good time!

Pull up a stool for a Pub Story! 🍻

Ever wonder about the lady in the song "Nancy Whiskey"? She’s not a person at all—she’s the drink itself.

Even wilder? This foot-stomping anthem was originally written as a prohibitionist warning to stay away from the liquor! It’s a bit ironic coming from a band called Whiskey First, but we think the song sounds much better as a celebration than a lecture.

The Secret Language of Wild Mountain Thyme. 🏔️💜

Most people think this is just a song about picking flowers, but the "thyme" and the "heather" are a secret code for something much deeper. Pull up a stool for a Pub Story on the hidden language of the hills.

Pull up a stool for a Pub Story! 🍻

Did you know "Tell Me Ma" started as a children's skipping song? It’s a long way from the schoolyard to the stage, but we love giving these old rhythmic tunes a new life.
