Formed from the ashes of a band known regionally as "Settle for Less", the Killigans came together in 2004 to play roots/folk/irish/americana inspired music with an uptempo feel and carefree attitude. The band is fronted by Brad Hoffman and Chris Nebesniak, the two primary songwriters and driving force behind the band. Two other Nebesniak brothers, Pat and Trevor, play the acordian and bass, and add their insight to both composition and melody. Greg Dank plays the fiddle most of the time and pops in on the mandolin occasionally. Ben Swift provides the rhythmic back-bone with solid drumming. The Killigans added a 7th member in late 2005- Edwin Mukusha, who plays the bagpipes on a number of tunes.
The band has emassed a loyal fan base in Lincoln, but their reach is far further. Playing regional music festivals and the Nebraska State Fair, as well as playing shows with national touring acts, has given the Killigans exposure to a wide audience of all ages and backgrounds. The Killigans are also featured on the recent PaddyRock.com compilation, "CD Paddy Rock Radio Vol. 1". Using the internet as a means of spreading the Killigans music, they now have fans from Germany, Japan and Australia too.
The band released a 4 song EP "the Killigans EP" in 2005, with the full length CD "Brown Bottle Hymnal" following on St. Patty's Day (March 17) 2006.
