Michael and Mary (Egan) Dunbar   A.K.A.    Michael and Mary 

The husband and wife musical team have been singing together for many years but have only recently begun to pursue a more public venue for their talents.
Michael is a native of the city of Sligo on the northwest coast of Ireland.  An avid reader and keen sports enthusiast, he writes poetry and is a passionate soccer fanatic, having represented Ireland as a Youth International.  He was employed for many years as a Senior Court Officer Sergeant at the Brooklyn Supreme Court and has recently graduated from Brooklyn College with a Master's Degree in Education-Guidance and Counseling. Michael, in addition to his other interests, is a gifted song writer and in collaboration with his wife, Mary, has put together a wonderful mix of songs.  His music has received considerable playtime on North West Radio in Sligo and two of his compositions were featured on the radio station's Top Twenty Countdown. He currently performs with Mary on the Irish-American music scene in Brooklyn with his band, Garavogue, named after the river that runs through his home town in Sligo.  The band has a popular following and can be heard regularly at The Bally Bunion, a well-known Irish establishment on 3rd Avenue in Brooklyn.
Mary is a native New Yorker, born, bred and reared in her beloved Brooklyn.  She is a graduate of St. Francis College where she acquired her B.S. degree.  She also studied at Brooklyn College and fondly remembers her participation in many college chorus productions, most memorably, her appearance in the college choral group at Carnegie Hall. Mary is a gifted musician with an enthralling singing voice.  Her rendition of "Please Don't Mention Her Again", a composition of Michael's, was one of the songs featured on North West Radio's Top Twenty and is an ideal showpiece of her diverse singing talents where she not only performs lead vocal, but harmonies as well.As hobbies, she enjoys cooking, crafts, photography and she also makes time for composing and dabbling with her great assortment of instruments.  When asked how long she has been singing she whimsically replies, "Since before I was born!"
