Greetings from Planet PsychoPOP! 'The Amazing Few - are wizards of feel-good frenzy, dancing, delirium and general mayhem. They are a 10-piece band notorious for our high-energy shows, mixing peppy pop with punkish quirk! They encourage our psycoPOP disciples to get buzzing, interacting, celebrating the imagination, smiling, dancing and letting go. The band's wildly different, excitable songwriting has been compared to The B-52's,The Clash, Presidents of the United States of America, The Flaming Lips, Frank Zappa, Pavement, Frank Black and The Mouldy Peaches.
They have supported or shared the stage with: I'm from Barcelona, Adam Green, The Presidents of the United States of America, Har Mar Superstar,Mundy, Ham Sandwich, The Pale, The Aftermath, Walter Mitty and the Realists, More Tiny Giants and many more. For the last 3 years The Amazing Few have been wowing festivals around Ireland and The U.K. Their shows are all named and themed and very interactive with the audience. The very low budget video for “Russian Girls” was featured on you tube and Hot press, and the song became a hit on the pirate radio stations in the U.S.
In 2007 they released the single “The Fairy Omar” and in 2009 we released “Russian Girls” there second single. 2010 Released two singles "Sponsored" and "Humpty Dumpty" 2010 "Live in The Button Factory DVD"

What other people have said about the Amazing Few:
"Weird and wonderful "
The Metro
“The Amazing Few are a brilliant live band they really get the crowd going"
The Irish Times
"These guys are a true indie band. Not doing it for money, fame or anything other than the love of playing music. They've been doing the rounds around Ireland for years now, and have moved up in the world playing cool festivals around Europe. If they're ever playing near you, go see them. It's a real specticle to see live"
Pretentious indie boys
"…this set was dramatic and vastly entertaining, their stage presence was performative, visual, spectacular, and full of those cool mood-enhancing ska-like brass outbursts" - Claire Rushe Connected Magazine
"Imagine the Juno soundtrack gone wild, heaps of people crammed onto a stage, brass instruments mixed with guitars and drums, a narrator and a vocalist, all in a barrage of balloons, silly string, card tricks and plain ole, uninhibited fun. This is The Amazing Few, and they are a wonderfully weird and wacky, Dublin–based delight.” - Eimear Duignan, Note media
