About the Wildcats.....

In 2001 the wedding entertainment industry was taken by storm! The Texas Wildcats who had been the top wedding band in New York decided to bring their talent and experience in the wedding industry back to Ireland. Playing a two year residency at the famous Rosie O‘Gradys in Times Square, this success projected them onwards to incredible top profile weddings at The Waldorf Astoria, The Plaza, The Four Seasons, and a St. Patricks day concert at the prestigious Carnegie Hall. The most interesting high profile gig in New York was when The New York Post invited the band to play at the celebration they hosted for the 27 lottery winners who had won, collectively, over 300 million dollars in the New York state lottery that year. On their return to Ireland The Wildcats performed live on The Kelly Show, The Late Late Show, BBC Radio and at the Olympia Theatre.
The Texas Wildcats are without doubt the best wedding band in Ireland. Their success lies in the energy and musicianship they bring to the wedding party. From the first song to the last, the floor is full of happy people, of all ages, having a great time. This summer the Wildcats praises were sung by The Wedding Journal in their summer edition feature, 'The Winners Tale’.
‘The Texas Wildcats are famous for raising the stakes in the Irish party scene with their combination of musicianship, amazing vocals and their vast programme of hit songs. It wasn’t long before the dance floor was full. The band has endless energy and the songs just seemed to keep coming until the guests were left exhausted.’
Last year the Irish Times asked Brides, if they could change anything about their wedding day, what would they do differently? 90% said Entertainment.

TEXAS WILDCATS TAKE MIDDLE EAST BY STORM

The Texas Wildcats got the dream gig of a lifetime on St Patrick’s Night. They were flown first class out to Muscat [one hour from Dubai] to perform to 700 black- tie guests. The guests comprised of all nationalities from India, Saudi Arabia, and Pakistan and of course Ireland. Spokesperson for John McCormick Promotions said ‘It was an amazing gig they never left the floor’. They partied to songs like The Irish Rover, The fields of Athenry, The Town I Loved so Well to Sweet Home Alabama, Don’t Stop Believing and of course the highlight of the night Galway Girl. The setting for The St Patrick’s Gala took place on the beachfront of the Intercontinental Resorts Hotel.
                                  On the last night of their 5 day stay a banquet was thrown for the band. One of the guest speakers who gave great praise to the Wildcats performance was Colm Hatchell. Colm was flown down from the Irish Embassy in Dubai to assist the band during their stay and had great praise for the Wildcats. ‘Fantastic band, everyone couldn’t stop talking about the great night they had.’ This sentiment was confirmed by the Wildcats being invited to perform again next year. The band is starting their busy wedding season and look forward to entertaining people all over Ireland over the coming year.
