Eamonn Campbell (born 29 November 1946) in Drogheda, County Louth, Ireland, has been a member of The Dubliners since 1987. He was also in the Dubliners when they recorded their 25th anniversary show on the late late show hosted by Gay Byrne, he is known as a guitarist and has a very rough voice very similar to the former Dubliner the late Ronnie Drew, he is still touring with The Dubliners. Eamonn is originally from Drogheda in County Louth, but now lives in Walkinstown a suburb of Dublin.

He is a regular drinker in famous Walkinstown Bar "The Submarine"

It was on his suggestion that the Dubliners work with London Irish band The Pogues in the mid 80’s thus giving them their biggest UK hit to date ("The Irish Rover") and an appearance on Top of the Pops.

He has produced all of the Dubliners' albums since 1987, as well as albums for many other Irish artists. He was originally a member of Dermot O'Brien and the Clubmen and first met The Dubliners when both acts toured England together in 1967.
