The story so far!

The McGetigans began, as many bands do, in a flurry of alcohol-induced psychosis. It all started in a small village in Donegal named Dunlewey. Kevin O’Brien was living there, doing an apprenticeship as a bar prop. Training he never finished and regrets to this day.

It all began on a cold summer's day or possibly a warm winter's night. Some believe it was spring, and that the weather was mild. But when it started is irrelevant. What’s important is that it did start. Of that we can be certain.

Kevin was joined on that fateful . . hour by a pair of wandering lunatics. John Sweeney and Donnacha Mac Donnagh.
