In early 1977, a band of brothers became just that: a bandSick of not being allowed into clubs - and getting barred from five in one week - because of the way they looked, three brothers and a few friends became a clique known as The OutcastsWithin months, they were one of the hottest bands on the emerging Belfast punk scene

At their first gigs the band was playing a mixture of their own songs and cover versions of songs by The Sex Pistols, The Clash, The Damned and The RamonesAnd most of the shows ended in some kind of disaster, so the local press dubbed the band 'The band you love to hate' due to their bad boy image

After three studio albums, many 7"s and EPs (a bunch of them were for the legendary Good Vibrations record label), day time national UK radio airplay, a song in the UK charts, sessions for the famous BBC broadcaster, John Peel, and constant tours in the UK and Europe, the band lost guitar player Getty who had died and in 1985, they split

The Outcasts reformed in 2011, without Colin on drums, to play Rebellion Festival in EnglandThis was the beginning of the new chapter for the two remaining brothers and their two new fellowsThe Outcasts are featured in the critically acclaimed and BAFTA nominated movie, Good Vibrations and in an Arte documentary [a popular art TV series made in France], which was shown in 2014 in France, Belgium and Germany; also a number of compilation and live albums have been released, and they have been touring constantly again in the UK, Ireland and across Europe

A musical play at the Belfast Lyric Theatre called 'Good Vibrations' is currently showing the band in their teenage years alongside the Undertones and Rudi

In 2019 The Outcasts released a 4 track EP on vinyl (5 tracks on cd) of new material for the US Record Label Violator RecordsAlso a double gatefold album of all their singles plus some sessions and live recordings was released by another US Record Label based in JapanFirst Japanese tour followed in 2019

A band that still wants it and gets itGreat to watch live with probably their best years still ahead of them, this band is a legend and a true punkrock unit that won't retire anytime soon

The current line-up of the band consists of Originals Greg Cowan on bass and vocals and Martin Cowan on guitarJP 'Dear Boy Moonie' on drums, joined the band 9 years ago, and Buck 'Defects' on guitar is the newbie

2023 will see the Outcasts first world tour, with Europe, US, Canada and Japan
