Father and sons perform spine-tingling rendition of ‘The Parting Glass’ in Irish pub

Cork pubs

This is really special.

If you do one thing today, it’s important that you watch this video taken in Fitzy’s Pub, in Crosshaven.

The Geaneys from Cork are clearly a very talented family, and we’re infinitely jealous of their vocal prowess.

Over the weekend, Jim Geaney stood up, along with his sons, Cillian and Lorcan, and the trio performed an astonishing rendition of Liam Clancy’s ‘The Parting Glass’.

The video has been viewed almost 200,000 times (at the time of writing), and has been shared thousands of times on social media.

One look at it below, and you’ll see why it’s gotten so much attention.

Cheers to everyone who sent this our way including Peadar O’Callaghan and Catherine Kelly. Got a story for JOE, get in touch with us here.
