More Info
The band consists of brothers Sean and PJ Kelly, plus schoolmates Ross McCluskie and Calum Davis. They met Greg Irish through their shared hobby of skateboarding. The brothers do most of the songwriting, but they share songwriting duties with Ross[3].
The band name comes from Culann a figure in Irish mythology, whose door was guarded by a fierce watchdog which was killed and replaced by Sétanta an Irish demigod who took on the role of the killed dog, and subsequently became known as Cú Chulainn.
Their debut album Culann in 2012 and follow up The Great Ecumene were recorded at Watercolour Music, Ardgour[4].
