I guess I should start by explaining who I am. My name is Jeff (Séafra) and I run this site and I've been doing web design for nearly a decade now. I grew up on diverse styles of music, but of course I found myself listening to bands like The Clash, The Ramones, The Pogues, and Irish Folk music more then any other. Can you see where I'm going with this? Basically, I started this site to help spread the word of the genre of Irish Punk and some amazing talent maybe you've never heard of before, and anything for your entertainment. Even though the focus is on Irish Punk, punk and Irish folk music, we have a lot of different content. So you can put this site into whatever category you wish.I will write about stuff I find useful and things that really keep me entertained.
After countless hours, and a lot of investments back in 2002, Irish Punk was finally starting to grow. You will not find any pop-up's, spyware, or porn adds with sound. So as you can see I keep this site in top shape for the readers, customers, and bands. All ads on this site will also be to link to legit content as well. In other words, you will not find yourself clicking on an add for 1000 free ipod nanos.
