Irish/Newfoundland Music
Authentic & Traditional
"Close your eyes, listen...you're home"
Morrissey's Private Stock
A little bit about us...
Steve Morrissey(Vocal/Guitar) - NL
Dave Morrissey (Vocal/Banjo/Guitar)-Ireland
Matt O’Leary (Accordion)-NL
Lenny Dalton (Vocal/Bodhran) -NL
Fonz Hann (Vocal/Mandolin/Guitar) -NL
Sandy Aberdeen (Bass/Vocal) -ON
Most of these lads have been transplanted to Calgary, Alberta from the rugged shores of Newfoundland and Ireland where Celtic music, strong Irish history and traditions run in their blood.
So why "Private Stock" ?
To market something as "private stock" means it is very high quality, and usually rare or only available in limited quantities...in our case, top shelf musicians. We promise quality shows and venues and not often..limited quantity so to speak. So come and listen, you will be longing for more.
Our Inspired Traditional Sound
Toe tapping tunes to keep ya moving and coming back for more.
"This is as real as it gets, it is a true authentic East Coast experience"

"They are an outstanding group of musicians who truly bring a piece of home to their audience. When they hit the stage, it’s impossible not to get up and dance. You will most definitely have a time when you come to hear them play"
BJ
