The Royal Hunt of the Sun

Introducing a brand-new collaborative project led by guitarist and songwriter Andrew Ryan; The Royal Hunt of the Sun brings together seven of Waterford’s most prominent musicians.
Alongside Andrew, the lineup features Ailise O'Neill (vocals), Calum McGavock (vocals), Seanie Whelan (vocals), Darragh O'Connor (guitar), James Hayes (bass), and Darryl Brazil (drums).

Forged in Ireland’s oldest city, The Royal Hunt of the Sun blends hard rock, blues, heft, driving rhythms, tasty guitar solos, powerful vocals, swagger — and above all, energy. Andrew’s mission is simple: to record and release an album of absolute rock classics (that will promptly shrivel into the Spotify void). After a lifetime in music, Andrew is finally making good on a long-standing promise to himself — to get these songs out into the world. The full album is to be released on August 22nd.
