Tony Kelliher, who hails form Tralee County Kerry, came to the United States in 1977 as a professional Irish Folksinger and Entertainer. With several recordings and TV appearances to his name he toured extensively throughout the country doing many concert appearances.
While on tour he was always attracted to Irish shops in many different cities and his goal was to design and build a store that the Irish and celtic audience would be really proud of.
He achieved this in 1998 when he opened his first store in a mall setting. He has since advanced to his own unique stand alone building which has the warmth and friendliness of Ireland itself.
