St. Patrick’s Day with The Knackers

The Lamplighter Public House
Thursday, March 17, 2011
4:00 PM - 2:00 AM
The Knackers set time 8-10pm

The Knackers are a four-piece Celtic/folk/rock ensemble consisting of acoustic guitars, fiddle, bass and drums. The Knackers music combines Irish and Canadian influences to their upbeat, hard hitting, socially and emotionally conscious music.

They tell the stories of the working class, the hard drinking, of down and out hobo logic, of sticking it to “the man” with a gaze from the gutter, of lost love and new hopes and which is all at once dark and full of humour and romance.

Their live show is vibrant and entertaining; full of heart it moves from lilting ballads to rowdy Celtic grooves, getting their audience up and dancing every time. The Knackers aspire to preserve traditional music and inspire listeners young and old to get up and forget their troubles, but mostly they want to sing, dance and party!
