Singer-songwriter Damien McCarron hails from Dublin, Ireland, where he grew up immersed in a melting pot of great Irish music ranging from the traditional to Dublin's modern rock bands. Before partnering with McCarron, multi-instrumentalist Mike Nile spent years touring as bassist for the legendary rock band "Spirit." His impressive variety of instruments includes guitar, mandolin, accordion, whistle, and the electronic bagpipes. The band's amazing fiddler, Renee Fine, is a classically-trained artist who has played with the Boulder Philharmonic. Drummer Pat Murphy and bass player Chris Murtaugh provide the backbone of the band's infectious, famously danceable music.
The Indulgers have rapidly gained a reputation as one of the top Celtic bands in North America and have appeared with numerous nationally and internationally known artists.

"The Indulgers' music is upbeat, danceable, and easy for non-Celtic fans to listen to. It's different from traditional Celtic music in that it has a rock/pop edge, without sounding too contrived or commercial. There are enough undertones to remind the listener the band is Celtic, without dominating the sound."
