In their time together they've had many songs come & go, they are now confident they are working with a strong set, that represents what they're doing.
Never one's to follow trends the lads have resisted the current 'indie rock movement' and stuck to their guns, doing what they can to develop their own personal sound. Among their many influences major players Paul Weller, Bob Dylan, The Verve, The Clash. But that's just a small number of their treasured musical aspirations, other influences include everything from Hank Williams & Miles Davis to modern groups like the Libertines. The band have worked up a good loyal following in the South Dublin area, and lately have been received warmly in many city centre venues.
Gengus In Their Own Words:
"A Dublin band tryin' to make a livin' out of a thing called Music,
You've probably heard of it.
A Band of no fixed ability.
We're lazy and full of want, and we want you!" Ron 2005
"As a band we like to compare ourselves with Stephen Hawking during his school days ; a genius with very few friends." Paul 2006
