John McNulty comes from a proud musical family with parents who are big music fans so has been surrounded by music as far back as he can remember. Classical first, then followed by Irish Traditional ( Planxty & The Chieftains ) and then he graduated to The Police. He was a regular visitors to his Aunt's house in Newtownbutler, County Fermanagh where his cousins were a couple of years older and they decided it would be a good idea to introduce him to AC/DC - "Hi John, wait until your hear this!" They played 'Back in Black' to their impressionable 9 year old cousin. A few weeks later, he had his own copy (which he still has to this day !! ) and his love of hard-rock, blues & metal began, as did his interest in song-structure. His first 'drum-kit' consisted of several pillows and some bamboo 'sticks'. In 1987, U2 released 'The Joshua Tree' and with it a track....Bullet the Blue Sky. He listened to it again & again, that opening drum roll just resonated!! He finally got to play it on the School Music Room drum-kit and he was hooked. For several years after this, he liked the idea of being a guitar player but he was quietly told that he should stay with the drums and has stuck with drums ever since. John is currently under tuition from Liam McGorry in the 1-2-1 drum school in Moira. John's band Influences include Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath, Soundgarden, The Cult, AC/DC, The Smashing Pumpkins
