Concerto for Constantine is three Dubliners: singer
and guitarist Mark Greaney (formerly JJ72's frontman
and songwriter), bassist Gavin Fox (formerly of
Turn,
Idlewild and Vega4),and drummer Binzer (formerly of
The Frames, BellX1, and Halite; he also plays drums
for
Mundy amongst others.
In the summer of 2007, Mark and Gavin found themselves bandless simultaneously.
They had, over the years of knowing one another, sporadically yet passionately discussed the notion of forming a three piece rock band. It was time for action.
The first, and only person to be sought for drumming duties was Binzer. He has been refereed to as the Irish Jimmy Chamberlain. Enough said. A rehearsal took place in late August 2007. It was raw. It was visceral. And having enough gigs under their collective belt from over the past decade they knew immediately that it worked. Bones shivered, hearts beat faster and ears hurt. A beautiful thunder was born. As individuals, the experience and talent is impressive. As a band it is colossal. This is three men at the top of their game, playing the music that they have always wanted to play.

C4C are the best Irish band for many reasons, amazing music, great vocalist, not too mention sweaty fucker when he’s knackered :P, great bassist with the coolest way of playing not to mention the most in deep facial impressions imaginable for such a great bassist, drummer . . . well if Binz reads this I don’t think there’s much I need to write that I haven’t already said to his face, except for of course that he is indefinitely my drumming idol and inspiration.
The music, is motivational and inspiring for every upcoming band out there, you cant like good music with out being a serious fan of C4C, I just wont allow it and on that note I will leave you with this confident boost for today, as I know how much it helps me and my band, I will be a C4C follower till I die or get killed by my drums, fuck me I beat them up so bad but till the next time lads . . . I want to thank you for producing such amazing music, its bout time Ireland got a brilliant band with the kind of music your doing, best super band in the world!!!
