The High End Dead are a five piece Alt Rock band playing the amazing sounds of Glam Rock to 50's Rock N Roll.
The band is made up of Owen on furious lead vocals, Aidan playing his fabulous wirley keys, Jason with his thundering drums and smooth vocals, Caoilte with his rock steady rhythms on drums and percussion and newest member Josh on electric guitar. The guys have rocked venues like the Ally Theatre and the Nerve Centre and local festivals. If you saw them last time you'll know it's a show not to be missed, if you didn't make sure you add it to your diary, it definitely won't disappoint!!
