Who is best known as the lead singer of Boston-based ska punk band Big D and the Kids Table, David McWane or Donnie Iris?
Donnie Iris Donnie Iris (born Dominic Ierace on February 28, 1943) is an American rock musician known for his work with the Jaggerz and Wild Cherry during the 1970s, and for his solo career beginning in the 1980s with his band, the Cruisers. He wrote the # 2 "Billboard" hit, "The Rapper", with the Jaggerz in 1970 and was a member of Wild Cherry after the group had a #1 hit with "Play That Funky Music." He also achieved fame as a solo artist in the early 1980s with the # 29 hit "Ah! Leah!" and the # 37 hit "Love Is Like a Rock."
The Gobshites The Gobshites are an American Celtic punk band from Boston, Massachusetts. Formed in 2002 by Peter Walsh, their music has been compared with the Pogues and Black 47, but with a twist: as well as taking Irish songs and punking them up, they take classic punk songs and 'Irish' them up; for example, in their hands The Ramones's "Long Way Back to Germany" becomes "Long Way Back to Ireland" with a fiddle jig incorporated.
