The State Theatre

The Fighting Jamesons deliver a traditional style of music with an aggressive and
energetic modern-day approach. Forming in 2010, The Fighting Jamesons quickly gained
a strong presence on the East Coast. They’ve shared the stage with legendary Irish rock
acts such as Dropkick Murphys, The Saw Doctors, and Young Dubliners. In November
of 2011 the band released their self-titled debut album, produced and engineered by
Capital Records recording artist Mark Padgett (Mae).
“It’s an album steeped in the grand tradition of classic Irish sing-a-long capturing the
true spirit of Irish music. The eight track album is the perfect Irish sing-a-long album —
it’s passionate, it’s emotional, it rouses the spirits, it makes you want a pint and a nip of
whiskey. If you’re listening to this album and it doesn’t make you want to get up and
dance, get drunk, throw your arms around your buddies or your loved ones, break out in
song or embrace the good things in life, then you’re probably one of those people who
think Saint Patrick’s Day is a nonsensical day of drunkeness, not a bold celebration of
Irish heritage and a day of nonsensical drunkeness.” - pop-break.com

“The Fighting Jamesons have taken their first in what we hope is a long, whiskey-fueled
career of making people have fun with the rollicking hybrid of Irish traditional and
American rock ‘n’ roll.” -pop-break.com

“They’ve made their name with their high-energy, interactive shows.” -pop-break.com

“Jeffrey Jameson’s fiddle playing is sure to get everyone’s foot tapping along. As
awesome as these studio recordings are, these guys are really at their best during the live
performances. Just like the saying “Everyone is Irish on St. Patrick’s Day”, everyone is
Irish when listening to The Fighting Jamesons.” -Amazon.com reviewer

“Interactive and energetic Irish rock band… they sure do bring the fun!” -AltDaily.com
