Hopemongers

The Hopemongers is a social justice folky-funky-bluegrass band formed by Ryan O’Riordan and Penny Stone.

We run singing workshops and hootenannys with one word at the core… Hope!

We are just in the process of organising more workshops for 2027, details to follow soon. You can see upcoming events (including Hopemongers Workshops and Hootenannys) here.

If you would like to join The Hopemongers email list, send a message to hopemongersband@gmail.com. You can find some wee snippets of us singing together here.

The first Songs of Hope singing workshop of 2027 will be happening in London on Saturday Feb 20th at the glorious Brockwell Hall. You can book tickets here.
