Electronic Press Kit

Born on New Year’s Eve 2006 for a one-time show, Flannigan’s Right Hook has gone on to entertain private & corporate audiences throughout the country, as well as numerous Midwest Clubs and Festivals year-round, and was officially declared “KANSAS CITY’S BEST LOCAL BAND” in 2018, by Pitch magazine. Flannigan’s Right Hook offers a broad musical genre that includes Bluegrass, Country, Rock, and Celtic favorites (as well as a little pop culture thrown in). The entertainment value is boosted by dynamic originals blending all those roots, their entertaining presentation of covers, and an audience connection that makes them more than just an Irish band; more than a cover band; and, not just Country, Bluegrass, or Rock. They are truly the perfect entertainment for everyone. Follow them on Facebook, Instagram, and at FlannigansRightHook.com

Friday Night at the Roxy Was a Treat
- - - - -
I stumbled into the Roxy Friday night .... A band called FRH was playing and (I) had no idea who or what they were .... I ponied up the $5 cover out of curiosity. After listening to the first couple of songs I was totally engaged and entertained by what I was watching and listening to. I have never heard anything like this. It was the most eclectic & bazaar (sic) playlist of songs I ever heard in 2 sets. Who in the hell plays Johnny Cash, Pink Floyd, The Beatles, Soundgarden, and on & on. After each song I was left wondering what is next. It was one of the most interesting live shows I have seen in a long time.
< snip >
The flexibility of each performer with the adaptions and variations of the songs was extremely creative. Coleen is a true professional as a musician and performer. I enjoyed ... (Cameron’s) vocal adaptions to what song and style was being played, not to mention doing double duty playing both bass lines and rhythm simultaneously. And Michael on drums is the glue that holds it all together with all the interesting tempo changes.
< snip >
I don’t normally send emails or comment on bands I’ve seen, but this was so different. I had to reach out to let you know how much I enjoyed the performance.
< snip >
Its a treat to watch FRH perform. See you soon.

You made my niece’s wedding complete from the rehearsal party thru the wedding. Everyone was blown away with the variety of music - so much more than an “Irish” band. Everyone loved the entertainment; It was worth every penny! We’re hooked!
