Wisconsin Irish Fest Artists

Discography for Wisconsin
musicians who have performed at
Irish Fest
in Milwaukee, WI at least once since 2000, as listed by name in the
official programs and "Entertainer Biographies" booklets. Most, but not
all, of these musicians primarily perform Irish music. I have only
attended since 2000, so I need to research who performed at every other
festival 1981-1999. Those Wisconsin performers and their recordings will
be listed here as soon as I know who they are. I can find no on-line list
of all Irish Fest performers back to 1981.
