Engaging, joyful and upbeat: the love children of Julie Andrews and James Brown.
A quarter LA, a quarter London, and half Belfast, The Greeters line-up is as eclectic as their set. Quirky and catchy, their summer-breeze melodies and lush harmonies contrast with spiky lyrics as the band offer musings on love, stalkers and call centres.
Georgia’s soulful set of pipes are punctuated with cut-glass vowels and her stage presence is captivating. Kasey’s on another drumming planet. Local hero and sublime riff-meister Scott provides mouth-watering guitar wizardry, and the dexterous sassy basslines come courtesy of multi-instrumentalist and all-round musical wonderboy Conor.
The Greeters are a cheery bunch, and unapologetically so, a wry gem in an indie-heavy local scene. Think Burt Bacharach induced Georgie girl 60s style pop with unashamed disco beats.

Reminiscent of some of the best 70s cop show theme tunes. Chrissie McGlinchey, Across The Line
Charting the failings and foibles of the human condition with self-deprecating wit. Stevie McCullough, No Clarity Online Magazine
Killer hooks, groovy vocals and catchy riffs, The Greeters inject a sense of fun and, it has to be said, much-needed froth into the usually rock-heavy local music scene. Featuring sublime vocals, this music gets your feet moving and grooving on the dance floor. A tight-knit group with a powerful stage presence. Patric Baird, The Belfast Telegraph
