About Eire Og
Formed in the early nineties by Gary (vocals and acoustics) , George Sinki Sinclair (on bass) and Paddy Campbell (drums and poetry) the original Eire Og started out playing venues in and around their home town of Glasgow. Bigger venues and biger money beckoned of course and they were lured across the Irish sea to play regular gigs in Belfast and Derry and for the many newly formed Celtic clubs throughtout Ireland. With the help of yours truly they arrived on their first tour of America in 1996 and their first concert was in the Lansdowne Bar and lounge in Yonkers where they got a rapturous welcome from their many fans in New York.Must have been the American air for when they returned home the band broke up. George and Paddy went on to do other things and Gary performed solo until Sean Lyons (mandolin extraordinare) and ex Blarney pilgrims and Coach (bass) joined him to once again complete the threesome. With many albums recorded and with frequent tours of the USA, Germany , Spain , Denmark, Holland and now Australia , as well as the local gigs in Scotland and Ireland they are a much lauded and sought after group on the entertainment scene. Well done lhads.
