C60

From: Cavan

Active: 1980-86

Style: Pop Covers Band

Lineup:

Bio:

C60 were basically a '60s covers band with a few originals thrown in. They played the showband circuit in the first half of the 1980s. With Brian McCormack, John Hannigan, Norman Breslin & Paul Cox (ex Blue Angel). Sleeve notes by Fr. Brian D'Arcy, the Jimmy Saville of the Irish clergy. Does not really belong in here but I list it for elimination purposes.

Recorded at Northsound Studios, Dungannon. Band split in 1986 when Brian McCormack and Norman Breslin emigrated to the USA.

Once described on ebay as "new wave/power-pop album w/some 60s covers" but basically this was a superior weddings/cabaret/party band.

Paul Cox was later in the Fireflys.
