Bio:
Dublin bluesy rock band who famously included a pre- Thin Lizzy Brian Downey.
Downey had previously been in the Dublin beat band The Black Eagles
with Phil Lynott who'd since joined Skid Row.
Sugar Shack's only
single offers covers of Tim Hardin and Cream and is now a major collectable.
Their live set also included covers of the Hollies ("I Can't Let Go") and the
Yardbirds ("Shape Of Things"). The singles success led to their downfall as
the demands of commercial success made it more difficult to play the blues
material they preferred.
Brian Downey later joined Phil Lynott's Orphanage who
became Thin Lizzy.
Brian Twomey previously with The Difference and
later in Full Circle.
