About Five Pint Mary
Celtic rock with a punk edge
Five Pint Mary is a 5 piece,
Irish-influenced band from Bend, Oregon. Since its formation in 2011, by
Michael and Sarah Holmes, they have been known for their upbeat and rollicking
style of Irish/pirate/folk-rock.
After Michael's unexpected
passing in 2021, they have reformed and literally risen from the ashes.
Original band members Sarah Holmes (vocals, guitar, Irish tin whistles), Matt
Gwinup (vocals, mandolin, guitar) and Evan Holmes (violin/fiddle) have welcomed
new members Mark Knippel (bass, horn) and Travis Palladino (guitar, vocals)
into their clan. Together, they are keeping the Five Pint Mary spirit alive.
Still rocking Michael Holmes's original songs, along with their well-honed and
favorite Irish music, and mixing in some fun, outside-of-the-box covers.
