About Nine Wassies From Bainne
A mad name for a mad band - Nine Wassies From Bainne were a quirky rock band formed around 1992 by Cork native and fluent Irish speaker Giordaí Ua Laoghaire. Ua Laoighaire was previously a member of Cork punk band Nun Attax before joining Microdisney (1980-82). He played guitar on Stano’s first two albums and later in the 1980s was a member of Cork band Soon. In 1988 he moved to Dublin and wrote music for theatre and presented his own high-regarded radio show on Raidió Na Life. In the Wassies Giordaí was joined by former Golden Horde member Peter O’Kennedy on drums and a number of bass players over the years: Enda Doyle, Eddie Lee and Michael Mullen; later again David William Murray was added on vocals. Nine Wassies From Bainne released one album, Ciddy Hall in 1998 on NumNum Records.
