Bastard Bearded Irishmen are a Celtic rock band from Pittsburgh, PA. Their music combines high-energy modern punk rock with traditional Irish folk roots. Though members have come and gone since their formation in 2008, the current line-up is cemented by front-man & founder Jimmy Bastard, Ryan Warmbrodt (guitar/vocals), Sean-Paul Williams (bass), Paul Dvorchak (mandolin), Steve LaRussa (drums), Luke Zacherl & Stephen Weiss (fiddle)

You’re more likely to believe these guys are from Dublin then the South Hills of Pittsburgh. An immensely talented and dedicated group of musicians that could hold their own on stage with The Pogues, Flogging Molly or Dropkick Murphys. No band from Pittsburgh makes me want to drink more. – Randy Baumann, WDVE Morning Show
