Welcome! Happenstance is a band based in Port Townsend , Washington, USA.
We like to stir-up-a-storm, and help blow away the cobwebs with our own unique musical style, playing spirited, traditional folk songs from the British Isles. We refer to ourselves as “very eclectic” and lots of fun. Be prepared to join in the choruses, march to Irish rebel songs, and dance to Marie’s Wedding.
We have an extensive collection of Public Domain songs, especially from Ireland. If you are worried about copyright, we can help.

"As an Irish/British folk and pub music fan, I've caught this band a few times now and have never been disappointed. Their harmonies are spot on, and their stage energy is infectious. Erin go braugh!"

"Happenstance! This band is not your average deaf-granny’s favorite Guinness-fueled group of parlor pluckers. They’ll get you moving with wonderful songs, musicianship, and vocals. Go see them!"
