Hailed in the 'Irish Echo' as ' one of the most impressive groups of Irish singers to be found anywhere... exquisite, exhilarating and nothing short of thrilling, Shay and Michael raise sibling rivalry to revelry, adroitly accompanying their sheer joy of singing with banjo, cittern and guitar. The Black and Black Minstrel Show also features fiery fiddle virtuoso Bobbi Nikles, celestial cellist Myra Joy and captivating keyboardist Bryan Seet. The concert includes Irish traditional ballads, Dublin street songs, music hall ditties, contemporary folk compositions, rollicking reels and jigs, all interspersed with comic stories, jokes and humorous childhood anecdotes that invariably have audiences smiling broadly and joining in on the choruses.
