JOE’s Song Of The Day #666: We Banjo 3 ‘Light In The Sky’

Eric Lalor

We Banjo 3

We Banjo 3 are absolutely flying.

We Banjo 3, from Galway, are probably Ireland’s biggest folk band, certainly in the US anyway.

With multiple Billboard Number 1 albums and a host of international awards and accolades, We Banjo 3 have performed with Mumford & Sons, recorded for Black Eyed Peas and entertained US President Barack Obama in Washington DC.

‘Light In The Sky’ is the latest release from the band’s Billboard Number 1 album, Haven.

Singer/guitarist David Howley said of the song: “The song is an ode to following your heart and keeping hope close. Whatever journey or road you’re on, keep going and find your way home. There is always a light in the sky.”
