Callehan Music

Imagine; the stage a campfire, the story a song, and raising a glass with new friends.

Callehan is Tony Trimper often accompanied by a colourful cast of characters. 

“Get ready for the enthralling flavours of Folk & Americana with Callehan.” - The Daily Music Roll

Tony chose the name Callehan as the band name and music persona to honor his Irish ancestry. Callehan have been local ambassadors of Maritime Music since the 2018 release of the Gourley Shanty Riot. This infamous 1856 Irish riot in Nova Scotia is just one of the tales Callehan has resurrected in songwriting. Callehan’s collaborations include Ashley MacIsaac, Terra Spencer, Christina Martin, and many more.

“Callehan proves that real music comes from the heart and not just trends.” - Planet Singer

Fun is priority #1; engaging audiences in story and song keep spirits raised high. After many beers sold in many pubs and larger stages, Tony quit the day job and is all in! 

“Callehan shines brightest live. - Planet Singer
