Style: Heavy Metal

Lineup:

Bio:

Their debut single "Rockin' Down Woodstock Way" was issued to commemorate the 1978 Irish Scouts National Jamboree held at Woodstock in Ireland. Don't laugh, Horslips played the same jamboree a year later!! Who booked the entertainment for these Scout events anyway? Mayhem and destruction followed. This single spent a week week in the Irish charts in August 1978, peaking at #18. Their second single from 1980 was released on Top Spin Records, a crappy country & western label.

There was a different, northern band called Stonefree active in the mid 80s who played mostly rock covers (Hendrix, Santana, Dylan, etc) with Drew Hamill from Portrush (vocals/guitar, ex Axis), Jimmy Millar (vocals/guitar), John Henry (bass) and Dave McBride (drums). The latter was later in Uncertain Trumpet.
