gangs

GANGS are a four-piece rock and roll band from Dublin. The line-up consists of Jordan Curtis, Dan Smith, James Connolly and Jonny Halpin. The band forms in 2012, and its members share an interest in music and fashion.

Style and sound

Their music combines elements associated with 1960s rock and roll and 1980s mod rock, with tags also linking them to mod revival and rock. The group has two classically trained guitarists, a hard-hitting drummer and distinctive vocals, and their style is tied to a working-class, everyday audience.

Activity and performances

GANGS tour Ireland with The Strypes and perform with The Blades at the Olympia Theatre in Dublin. They build a reputation as a notable new act in Ireland.
