Paisley’s Muldoons are back in town
Get Friday night in your diary if you love live music.
Members of one of Paisley’s most popular indie bands have decided to dust down their guitars and play a reunion show ... more than 20 years after their last gig.
The Muldoons were a familiar name of the local live circuit in the early 90s, taking the stage at pubs and clubs, and even the town hall to impress fans.
However, the group decided to call it a day after a couple of line-up changes and put their instruments into storage.
Now, 20 years later, the boys are back in town, and ready to rock The Bungalow, in Shuttle Street, on Friday night.
Guitarist Bobby Corrigan, said: “We were Paisley’s finest indie band after forming in 1998 and playing venues like the now defunct Ale House, Toledo Junction, supporting Pa i s l e y ’ s own Close Lobsters and also the Lagoon supporting another Paisley artist, Carol Laula.
“Gigs were to follow at The Clubhouse, the Arts Centre and a charity show at the town hall called Rock to Walk, which was covered by the Paisley Daily Express back in the day.
“The group disbanded in the 90s after a successful run as one of Paisley’s longestrunning and successful indie bands.”
During the time the band has been away, technology has made vast improvements.
And Bobby is grateful that publicising a show is no longer as hard work as it was back in the early 90s.
He said: “Getting the gig advertised has also been a lot easier this time around with social media.”
The Muldoons play The Bungalow on Friday night, with support from Steven Leonard.
Doors are 7.30pm and entry is free.
