'Scullion' History:
Scullion, formed in 1975 by singer-songwriter Sonny Condell, filmmaker and broadcaster Philip King and guitar supremo Greg Boland. They delighted audiences all over Ireland and Europe with their exceptional live performances which mixed their folk rock music with hilarious on stage banter. Boland departed the Band in 1986 and was replaced by Robbie Overson. In the late 80's the band went into semi- retirement occasionally playing one off concerts while Condell concentrated on a solo career. Philip King became a TV producer while Overson played with many bands including Eleanor Shanley & Sean Keane. In 1998, Scullion reformed to re- record Eyelids into Snow for use in a commercial for Nissan. They also recorded a new version of Down In The City, a Sonny Condell classic from his first solo Album Camouflage. These new recordings along with the other tracks are taken from the first Scullion Album to be released since the last century. |
