Biography

Sack is a Dublin-based 5-piece band comprising Martin McCann on vocals, John Brereton (guitar), Tony Brereton (drums) Gavin Fox (bass) and Tony Barrett (guitar) Formed from the ashes of Lord John White the band came to notice with their strong melodic songs, biting political lyrics and new wave guitar driven sensibilities. Their first single ‘What Did the Christians Ever Do For Us?’ was single of the week in both the NME and Melody Maker. In 1993 they signed to U.K Indie label Lemon Records, who released their first album “You Are What You Eat”. 1994 saw the release of “Butterfly Effect'' which was produced by Stereolab producer Paul Tipler and Garret 'Jacknife' Lee. The album contained one of their most memorable tracks, "Laughterlines", a song Morrissey said, “should be Number One forever” and which appeared on the soundtrack to the movie "Carrie 2: The Rage''. At Morrissey’s behest Sack opened for him on his 1999 Oye Esteban World Tour taking in mainland Europe, the UK & Ireland, and the U.S. The former Smiths singer also included Colorado Springs (from You Are What You Eat) on his hand-picked NME CD "Songs to Save Your Life" before inviting the band to open for him again on a European tour in 2003. A new single "What A Way To Live" arrives in August 2021 with amazing reactions already coming in from national Irish radio and press. The band will play sell-out shows in Ireland throughout 2021 with a new album and European tour dates to come
