The Pub Runners, a Gaylord, Michigan, based Irish band would appreciate being considered to perform at your next event, festival or show.

We’ve played to audiences across North America and in Ireland for nearly thirty years. Our performance can be catered to the audience. We feature concert or pub style shows. 

"The Pub Runners aren't just a band at

Patrick Doud's. They're the heartbeat

of our nights. Their authentic Irish

spirit and infectious energy fill the

room, bringing friends together and

turning every show into a celebration!"

- Dave Pontano, co-owner Patrick Doud's Irish Pub, Mackinac Island, MI

We call our concert show  “A Musical Tour of Ireland”. It’s packed with Irish music, stories and humor all based on our unique experiences touring the Emerald Isle and visiting non-traditional destinations.  We offer a wide variety of Irish music including ballads rich with the stories of famine and emigration, toe tapping pub songs and traditional tunes sure to please your audience as we weave our way through small Irish villages where songs were written or written about. Most recently, we performed at the historic Ramsdell Theatre in Manistee, MI. 

"Their performance was nothing short of

extraordinary, captivating our audience

with a seamless blend of energetic

music, masterful storytelling and an

infectious enthusiasm that left a lasting

impression on everyone in attendance".

"The Pub Runners' running knows no

limits! Oceans crossed, stories told

and songs shared. They truly are

ambassadors for all that is good and

lived through music. The gift they so

naturally share is the gift of music.

Long may they share, sing, run and

stand still in the glory of the tune."

- Fr. Vincent Sherlock P.P., 

Church of St. John The Evangelist,

Tubbercurry, County Sligo, Ireland
