Bio
GDC are a new Rock band based in Dublin. Each musician brings their own unique blend of talent to the table. Cillian Foster has played the Irish circuit for many years sharing stages with some of Irelands greatest musicians like Paddy Casey, Mundy, Aslan, The Fureys, Don Baker, The Stone Roses Exp just to name a few. He has toured the country extensively in some of Irelands top venues. David Hart has been a hard man to hold down as so many bands have sought after him as he is the back bone to many bands in his own right. He has toured a lot as a session musician for too many bands to mention but has finally found a home with GDC. "we hope" Gary Burke, who also plays with well renowned Irish band Jezzebelle, has been through the mix. Having toured Ireland and America with Jezzebelle after releasing two albums to great acclaim is a rock and roller at heart. Keith Duignam is an experienced bass player from old rock band Stone Ocean. The band released their album signed to Ghost Train Records but due to unfortunate circumstances when the album was doing very well the band split. Aiden Smyth is another man who was hard to nail down due to his talents on guitar. He toured with many musicians as a session guitar player. He is also a guitar player with Jezzebelle who has luckily enough time and love for the music that he has offered his services. Cillian formed the band with these musicians after recording his debut album which is due for release early next year.
