ABOUT US

Ramparts 2022 stephens green.jpg

The Ramparts are an all-male Dublin based a cappella group set up in Feb 2016.

Their set list is a total variety show, featuring a wide range of traditional Irish folk songs, classic hits, old school barbershop ballads, contemporary classical and sacred music.

Over 30 members strong, the are versatile performers who know how to keep an audience entertained with their big sound and even bigger personalities. Whether on stage, on the street, on the bus, or in the pub - The Ramparts always guarantee their audiences a unique and memorable show.

The Ramparts are perhaps best recognised from their viral successes - their performances of 'The Rocky Road to Dublin' and 'Fairytale of New York' in the Stag's Head pub have received over 6M views on YouTube. Over the years, they have also become known as "those lads" who sang Raglan Road onboard the DART, My Lovely Horse onboard Grafton St, or Baby On Board onboard... a Camden Street rooftop!

In addition to their online presence, The Ramparts have a number of TV appearances under their belt, namely the BBC's 'Pitch Battle', RTE 1's Christmas at Kilkenny Castle, and Virgin Media's Ireland AM and Ireland's Got Talent, as well as numerous performances on the airwaves with Joe Duffy (RTE 1), Sean Moncrieff (Newstalk) and Henry McKean (Newstalk).


In the summer, The Ramparts perform annually at Electric Picnic and Kaleidoscope festivals, and make regular appearances at other regional music and arts festivals.

Every year they host two headline gigs, one during the Summer and one at Christmas. Keep an eye on their social media accounts for announcements and latest news, or sign up to their mailing list.

Their day-to-day shows include private parties, weddings, corporate and charity events, and since the success of the Rocky Road to Dublin video, they have safely secured their place in the flash mob business!
