   About Finnegan's Lads RIP
The Finnegan's Lads & Lassie story (so far...)

It's summer 2003 and Xavier and Erik have been listening to Irish music for a while, and on just one of those hot summer-evenings they got the idea to play some Irish traditionals themselves. Xavier still had an old accordeon at his place and Erik was going to play guitar and sing the songs. After watching a gig from the legendary Dubliners in October they totally got into folk and practiced for their fist gig which was a big success. A few weeks after this the band expanded for the first time: Norman joined to play the bassguitar.

In April 2004 Erik went to Dublin to get some inspiration at Guinness, so the band had to quit for a while. At Erik's return in August, Robert, the former drummer of rockband Deterrence joined the gang to create a rock sound.

At this point there was just something missing: an electric guitar. After a short search Bart was added to our line-up and we were almost complete. Anne joined us on the tin whistle, making the folk-part of our sound al lot cooler. By the way, at this time Erik also plays the banjo and mandolin

In June 2006 the band recorded their first mini-album Uisce Beatha of which the main song: "Whiskeyday, Everyday!" was chosen to be on the new Paddyrock Radio Compilation
Please also leave some remarks on our forum: http://www.finneganslads.nl/forum

When you think of our music just think of listening to music while you are getting pissed by too much booze!

Slainte!
