The Bar-Steward Sons of Val Doonican

Tickets: £20

Location: The Milton Rooms, Malton Market Place, Malton

Founded in Barnsley Rock City in 2006 by their outspoken and energetic ringleader Scott Doonican, The Bar-Steward Sons of Val Doonican are on a mission.

Far from being your typical folk ensemble, this cult-like collective of like-minded knitwear enthusiasts are determined to follow in their spiritual father’s immortal footsteps and keep his legacy alive. Scott and his brothers-from-other-mothers, Mo-Jo Doonican, Dave Doonican and the Reight Reverend Jeremiah Rickenbacker III, have quite the talent for Bar-Stewardising other famous people’s songs with new satirical comedy lyrics, on folk instruments.

To complete their outrageously understated image, the Doonicans have become instantly recognisable for their immaculate hair and their stylish choice of sexy knitwear, and instantly memorable for their lairy, no-holds-barred, anarchic live shows.

A group that is both perpetually on the move, ever-evolving and joyously independent, they have played close to 1,300 side-splitting shows to date, and have brought smiles and belly-laughs to audiences across the UK.

They continue to wow audiences with a fine selection of their greatest hits, including the likes of “Jump Ararnd”, “The Lady In Greggs”, “How Deep Is Your Glove?”, “Paint ’em Back”, “Goat Yoga” and “If I Could Punch A Face… It’d Be Justin Bieber’s”.
