Biography

Formed in 1978 by musician and folklorist Mick Maloney, Green Fields of America combined the step dance, and vocal and instrumental traditions of Irish America with a revolving cast of musicians and dancers who included Seamus Egan, Eileen Ivers, Marie Reilly, Donny Golden, Jean Butler, Liz Carroll, Jack Coen and Michael Flatley. The award-winning ensemble was created primarily for concerts and festivals, though they occasionally release albums (1989's Green Fields of America: Live in Concert and 2009's Green Fields of America).
