The
Astronauts
(Kilkenny)

There were two Astronauts showbands, one in Loughrea, County Galway and the other in Kilkenny. I like this handout - there was an artist in every band! Singer/songwriter Mick Hanly (top) was lead singer.

 If you would like to write a piece about The Astronauts Showband, if you can fill any of the spaces in the line-up, if you were a member of the band or if you have a different photo to those on this page, please let us know. Comments and memories of friends, band-members and fans will be published on this page.
