Four Green Fields’ since-demolished Platt Street location brought some of the biggest names in Irish music to downtown Tampa.

The late Sinead O’Connor played there in 2005, and so did folk rebellion band The Wolfe Tones. Derek Warfield, a founding member of The Wolfe Tones brings a different iteration of his band to Four Green Fields’ Channelside pub (the facade is painted to look like the Platt Street spot) for a Florida exclusive show where there’ll surely be a lot of half and halves poured out while Warfield belts out tunes like “Come out Ye Black ‘n’ Tans.”

There's no cover to see Derek Warfield & The Young Wolfe Tones play Four Green Fields' Channelside location in Tampa on Saturday, Aug. 31.
