CITY TO CITY
Introducing... Gallus
A new series in partnership with Marshall
Their name means bold in Scotland – which is entirely apt for this dynamic indie-punk band
Stacks of youthful energy: Gallus at Glasgow Green – (l-r) Matt McGoldrick, Gianluca Bernacchi, Paul Ewins, Eamon Ewins, Barry Dolan
AS they bicker genially over afternoon pints in a Glasgow beer garden, Gallus can agree on one thing. “We want to have fun,” says singer Barry Dolan. “That’s the goal for us. The best thing about live music is seeing a band having the time of their lives. We want people to come and forget their problems and let off steam for 45 minutes.” And the old friends go back to happily squabbling about which member originally wanted to name them The Alphabets, whether Frank Sinatra played Celtic Park or Ibrox, and how many songs they managed to get through at their debut gig before running out of material.
