Brian Quigley has been performing in the Western New York area for over ten years, first with The Dustmen, Rosewood Bridge,  and the Irish Tweeds. The music he plays and writes is inspired by Celtic folk songs, the folk music of the 1960’s, and by the music of contemporary singer songwriters.

When Brian, Jim Dunnigan, and Zoë Buck of Rosewood Bridge agreed to play a benefit they asked Pete DiGioia and Michael Frey to join them on drums and electric guitar.  With tongue in cheek they called the special line-up the Irish Tweeds inspired by Jim's 1960's rock and roll band and the name stuck. Now whether playing as the original 3 piece line-up of guitar,  fiddle, and bass, or the 5 piece that adds drums and guitar we've decided to be the IRISH TWEEDS full-time!
