Carswell & Hope is the project of Nick Carswell, an Irishman from Limerick who has ended up living in the US Midwest since 2011.

Based in Lawrence, KS, Carswell & Hope bring vintage rock sounds and sensibilities together with big harmonies, carefully crafted textures and inventive songwriting. Carswell & Hope offer an eclectic blend of singer-songwriter, alt-rock, electronica and psychedelic, with spacious and delicate arrangements set amongst big rock sounds and rich vocal harmonies.

A Different Program of Irish Music

In addition to their original music, Carswell & Hope offer an eclectic alternative view of Irish music with a program of traditional, folk and rock from Ireland. The setlist includes music from Thin Lizzy, U2, Paul Brady, Van Morrisson, Glen Hansard, Mundy, Sinead O’Connor, The Cranberries and more!
