About Me

Setting Off Sirens - Protest Song


Setting Off Sirens - Live in Keady

Setting Off Sirens - Quitting Again Live In Newry

Hello Wierdos!! We started life as Dead Letters but there were 400 other bands called that so we stopped and argued for another 6 months. Now we're called Setting Off Sirens. You can make your own mind as to what genre we fit into. We don't care - those who like us will like us and those who don't, well what do they matter? To help you make your mind up there's a mini-album which you pick up at gigs. We welcome constructive criticism (though if you want to tell us that your band is better, don't bother) Our myspace is maintained by whoever has the time and inclination but we'll always answer your contacts. Enjoy!
