Bio:

The Alsatians were formed in the late 70s by Paul Hickey, who'd previously led a jazz rock band called Chessnut. They are usually described as pub rock in the style of Dr.Feelgood or the Count Bishops with a horn section.

The band was a successful touring act in Ireland for several years and scored a radio hit with "5 Honours & A 175", their best known song. An LP was announced by Libra Records but it never came out.

Paul Hickey later fronted the more folk/trad oriented Keep the Faith as well as a country rock band called The Critters. He has also released two solo albums. See Paul's website for more details of Paul's solo career.

Note this Alsatians is not the UK powerpop band who released the "Teen Romance" single.
