This Is This

From: Dublin

Active: ca 1987

Style: Indie Pop

Lineup:

Bio: Short-lived pop band with female singer who did all original material. Their music was described by Richie Taylor as "pure 80s guitar/keyboards rock, inoffensive and undemanding, with occasional sparkle". He compared them to Auto Da Fe and Quarterdeck, and singled out "Pandroa Open The Box" for praise. The bands appearance on Megamix, miming at the Cathedral Club, is now on youtube.

Drummer Paul McArdle was also in The Hellfire Club. Dav McNamara later appeared in the 1993 and 1996 Eurosong (i.e. what used to be called the national song contest which selected Ireland's entry for eurovision).
