Shebeen were formed in Glasgow in 1997 & are arguably the finest Irish Rebel band presently playing on the Republican / Celtic circuit. Their first album, "Volume 1" (funnily enough!) was released in November of that year (in aid of Tyrone P.D.F). Having toured extensively throughout the british mainland, the Occupied 6 Counties & the Irish Republic they soon built up a loyal support amongst the Irish Diaspora both at home & abroad. The next album, "Disband The R.U.C", was quickly followed by "Live In Creggan", recorded in St. Marys' Centre, Creggan, Derry City on Easter Sunday 1999. Shortly afterwards the band embarked on their first tour of Norway, where their inimitable brand of in-your-face Rebel music met with rave reviews in the Norwegian press. "Do You Really Think It's Over" is their latest offering to date & a mix of studio & live performances. The line up has changed somewhat over the years with original members Alan & Timmy having been joined by Pádraig (Saoirse), Paul, Magintie & Podgie. However, their goal remains the same... ...BRITS OUT & ONWARDS TO A 32 COUNTY SOCIALIST REPUBLIC!
