About Stanley:

 
 

We started in mid-summer 2002, a month or so after finishing national school. 'Sullie' (vocals), Mark (drums), Aric (bass) and Gerry (lead gutars, backing vocals) decided to start up a band (we were called 'Thoughtless' back then). Our first gigs involved playing some Battle of the Bands around the place, but didn't get very far with them.

 

Mark Forkan joined us sometime in 2003 to play rhythm guitar but left to the following year. He fucked off to study for his Leaving Cert exams and to go to collage. John Byrne joined us around August 2005, replacing him. We used to practise down at Mark's house but moved to John's in March 2006 'cause he lives in town and it's less hassle travelling 2miles down the road. The biggest gig we've played so far has been Lovefest 2006 in Swinford, Co. Mayo. The gig attracted over 1,500 people from around the county. Our performance is featured on the DVD and it's available sometime before Christmas this year (hopefully!). It was the first occasion where we performed an original; 'Take You There'. It recieved a huge reaction from the 400 or so strong crowd.

 

We've played all around the county, like in Balla, Kiltimagh, Claremorris, Swinford, Foxford, Bohola, Castlebar and Ballyhaunis. We started writing our originals in February 2006 and got some praise for them. Paulie and John are the main song writers, but all of us are working on our own songs at the momemnt. We headed on up to a studio (Shay's of Loughrea, Co. Galway) in late August 2006 to record the four solid originals ('Take You There', 'Feel Free', 'Spur of the Moment' and 'Rainy Day').
