Born out of Belfast's gritty musical heart, Banshee is a thunderous rock quartet channelling the raw power of classic rock legends while blazing their own bold trail through the modern scene. Formed in 2022, the band brings together the soaring vocals of Rosie Lee, the riff-heavy guitar work of James Dawson, the deep rhythmic groove of bassist Nick Scott and Max Couhig's irresistibly funky drumming — a line-up that crackles with chemistry and pure rock 'n' roll attitude.
It all started with a shared obsession for the greats—Led Zeppelin, Fleetwood Mac, Janis Joplin, Deep Purple, and more. Banshee cut their teeth playing the songs that shaped generations, but it wasn't long before their own creative fire took over. Now armed with a growing arsenal of original material, the band delivers high-octane performances full of soul, swagger, and raw emotion.
Their sound? Think blistering guitar solos, powerhouse vocals with a bluesy edge, and a rhythm section that knows when to groove and when to explode. It's classic rock reborn—with a fresh, fierce, and fiercely feminine twist. With Belfast as their stomping ground and the live stage as their true home, Banshee is quickly becoming one of the most exciting emerging acts on the Northern Irish rock circuit.
Catch them live and witness the storm for yourself.
