Kevin Rowland born 17 August 1953, Wednesfield, Wolverhampton UK. That makes him English, he might have had Irish parents but where you are born makes you who you are.

@jcabralpinto sure
-
@Salaminguana haha no you wouldn't

He isn't Irish, he's from the West Midlands. No doubt if he was American he'd cling to his Irish roots, but he's not. He's English :)
-
He is Irish, his family are all from Mayo in the west of Ireland and there were about 50-60 of his relations in the audience in Dublin when they played there in 2003, he said " It's good to be home!!", ok he was born in england but his parents are both 100% Irish, you know what they say, "just because he was born in a stable doesn't mean he is a horse!!!!!"

He is Irish
-
why British "soul" band? it's a soul band. if you didn't know you'd think it was a black guy from USA singing.

Searching for the Young Soul Rebels is the best Dexys album by far, this is when they were at their prime, so much passion and soul, fantastic brass section
