Listen to Whipping Boy Studio 8 Session


Recorded  6 December, 2011

2fm Studio8 Session

Whipping Boy are:

Finn McGowan - guitar,
Joey McGowan - bass,
Killian McGowan - guitar,
Colm Hassett - drums ,
Fearghal McKee - vocal,
Alan D'Arcy  - sax.

It's been a decade and a half since Whipping Boy recorded a 2fm Session, so to mark the release of their new single, they visited Studio 8 once again. And they have just released  'No One Take Prisoners Anymore' (and b-side 'Earth's Last Picture') -their first new material in almost 12 years. One of the great iconic Irish acts of the last 25 years, Whipping Boy returned in 2011 to an Irish live scene. The album Heartworm is described in the following terms 'good people fucking up and fucked up people doing their best to be good'.  And the years have not dulled their ability to be unpredictable, over the top and brilliant at the same time..
