Carrickmore is an upbeat Irish folk band led by brothers Jeremy and Philip Hardy, born and raised in Newfoundland, where music is inseparable from daily life and culture. Surrounded by traditional songs, storytelling, and strong Irish influence, they grew up immersed in a musical environment that shaped both their sound and approach.

Before forming Carrickmore, Jeremy and Philip each performed in nominated bands, gaining years of experience on stage and in sessions. The project allowed them to focus on shared roots and a straightforward love for music that’s energetic, honest, and meant to be enjoyed in good company.

Carrickmore’s sound blends driving Irish folk with unmistakable Newfoundland character. Featuring multiple instruments, strong melodies, and a lively, welcoming energy, their music is built for good times—packed rooms, sing-alongs, and nights that feel less like a show and more like a gathering.
