The Wolfe Tones are an Irish folk and ballad group, famous for performing rebel songs, historical ballads, and Traditional Irish music with strong nationalist themes. Formed in 1963, they take their name from Theobald Wolfe Tone, one of the leaders of the Irish Rebellion of 1798, also carrying a double meaning, referencing the wolf tone; a sound that can affect instruments in the string family of the orchestra. The Wolfe Tones being one of the longest standing ballad groups in Ireland, gathered popularity from their distinctive melodies and a repertoire that mixes traditional tunes with original songs about Irish history, politics, and culture. The band's accolades include receiving the keys to the cities of New York and Los Angeles, and their version of Thomas Davis' rebel song 'A Nation Once Again' was voted the world's favourite song in a 2002 BBC World poll.
