The Gleasons call Milwaukee home and are a staple of the regional pubs and Irish Fest - the world's largest Irish music festival.

"The Gleasons played a wonderful show last night. It's rare to experience a band that integrates top-notch musicianship with well-written songs. The cherry on top is the obvious fun they have with each other and their audience... a national-caliber band right here in Milwaukee."
