The Wolfe Tones are an Irish rebel/folk band. They formed in 1963 in a Dublin suburb when 3 kids named Noel Nagle, Liam Courtney, and Brian Warfield decided to start a band. They named themselves after Theobald Wolfe Tone, an 18th century Irish Nationalist. The next year they roped Brian’s older brother Derek into joining them and Courtney left, to be replaced with Tommy Byrne. This became the band’s lineup for almost four decades. They released their first album, The Foggy Dew, in 1965. Their albums contain a mix of traditional Irish folk music, more modern songs, and their own compositions. Around the Turn of the Millennium they ran into some trouble. Derek Warfield pulled some legal shenanigans which left the other members of the band unable to legally record new material for over a decade. He eventually left to form his own band: Derek Warfield and the Young Wolfe Tones. The remaining three couldn’t even legally tour under the name "The Wolfe Tones" for a few years due to the contract Derek had suckered them into. Brian, Noel, and Tommy righted the ship eventually, and they are still touring. Their effect on Irish folk and rebel music has been impressive, with many of their songs becoming standards, especially “We’re On The One Road”.Discography:
