About Sons of Southern Ulster

Formed around songwriters Justin Kelly (vocals) and David Meagher (guitars), Sons of Southern Ulster released their debut album Foundry Folk Songs in 2016 and a second album ,Sinners and Lost Souls, in 2020. Many of their songs reflect the experience of growing up in a small southern border town (Bailieborough, County Cavan, Ireland) long before the internet and the country’s “Celtic Tiger” rapid growth period. They explore themes of regret and disappointment, interspersed with moments of light and insight.

The EP, Turf Accountant Schemes, was released in 2021. The EP features four tracks from the band’s second album Sinners and Lost Souls, each of them re-imagined and re-mixed by Pete Briquette of Boomtown Rats fame.

Lineup

  1. Justin Kelly – vocals
