Rick's "O' Be JoyFull" shows are performed in a strong vocal style, reminiscent of the singing during America's Civil War, and the "Romantic" and "Victorian" ages in America, the time and age when "Sing-A-Longs" were the number one entertainment pastime and the "Piano" was the number one instrument!

Audiences are encouraged to "Sing-A-Long," with Rick, as would be appropriate for 19th and early 20th Century American entertainment, as well as present day Irish entertainment and audiences are provided with most of the song lyrics for the show!  (Many people enjoy just listening too!)

"O' Be JoyFull's" show captures the feel and experience of the 19th Century's number one entertainment pastime, the "Sing-A-Long!"  Many people have commented on the very enjoyable and memorable experience of feeling transported back in time for a glimpse of 19th Century America at one of Rick Garland's "O' Be JoyFull" performances!

Along with Rick's historically accurate, entertainng and often humorous stories about the songs, their composers, and 19th Century History, "O' Be JoyFull's" "Live" show is quote..., "a real crowd-pleaser.  It melts away any formal atmosphere and turns the room into a fun, feel-good experience."  - Philip M. Cole - Author - "Civil War Artillery At Gettysburg." and a Licensed Battlefield Guide at Gettysburg.


Phil Cole also said this about "O' Be JoyFull,"  "Rick has done his research and has come up with a great, fun filled collection of wonderful American Civil War and Irish songs and stories.  Plus, that boy can sing!"
