Formed in 2005, Dublin based 4-piece GATSBY comprises Paddy Quigley (vocals/guitars), Stephen Sheridan (guitars/vocals) and Sid Alcock (bass).
Paddy, Stephen and Sid are lifelong friends from Swords on Dublin's northside who have played together in several previous incarnations of the band - right the way from primary school band, to busking on Dublin's Grafton Street, to being named as O2's 'Unsigned Band of the Year' to playing with the late, great Joe Strummer of The Clash in Dublin's famous Olympia Theatre.
Musically, GATSBY's sound is probably best described as uptempo, melodic, pop/rock.
Choosing to name yourself after an F. Scott Fitzgerald character to whom the word 'Great' will forever be attached is a brave move for any act, but not one of GATSBY's abilities. For a band described by Hotpress magazine as "Dublin's best-kept secret", it's a safe bet they won't remain that way for long.
