  • Bio

    Belfast Gin falls into a music category that we'd like to consider "Twisted Traditional". We are a seven-piece Celtic group with kit drum, electric and acoustic guitars, bass, viola, tin whistle/flute and vocals. A high energy Celtic group, Belfast Gin creates a unique sound to the Celtic genre with an emphasis on searing vocals and an almost classic rock feel. Bootleggers everywhere, it's time to make a run!!!
  • Members

    Laurie Laing - Lead Vocals .. Allen Giese - Bass, Backing Vocals .. "Rudeman" Callen - Electric Guitar, Backing Vocals .. Richard Koontz - Flute, Tin Whistle, Bones .. Aaron Miller - Drums .. Jenni Koontz - Bagpipes
  • Influences

    We have a variety of influences. We take aspects from all kinds of music from Traditional Celtic to Swing to Bluegrass to Disco and Classic Rock. We're pretty much influenced by everthing that's out there.
