Brian Warfield is the vocalist, banjo, harp and bodhrán player, as well as the lead songwriter with long-standing Irish band The Wolfe Tones.[1] He also introduces many of the songs on stage, after the departure of his brother Derek Warfield from the band.
Warfield wrote "Let the People Sing", an Irish rebel song celebrating the power of music in a people's struggle for freedom. It has been performed by many Celtic and Irish Rebel bands, such as Eire Og and Charlie and The Bhoys. It is a popular song among fans of Celtic F.C. and a version [1] performed by The Malleys, omitting the second verse, is played at Celtic Park on match days.
