About Belsonic Sound

Rock/Reggae combo from Cork who scored a top 10 hit in Holland in the 90s.

The Belsonic Sound began in the early 1980s, emerging from a punk four-piece, Belson, founded by 15-year-old Finny Corcoran.

Belson became The Belsonic Sound. The reggae scene in Cork was big at the time and the quartet began to incorporate elements of the genre into their music and move away from the unexpurgated anger of punk. And they settled on the core lineup of Finny Corcoran on guitar, Gene Russell on bass, Jim O'Mahony on keyboards and Con O'Donovan on drums (replaced in 1983 by John MacCormack).
