Listening to Celtic Crush this morning- and this song was played. It caught my attention right away. I looked to see who the artist was- because it sounded like U2- it was a group called Inhaler. When the three song set that was playing was finished- Celtic Crush host Larry Kirwan said it was a group headed by Bono’s son Elijah. The apple didn’t fall far from the tree.
Good call, Hans. I can definitely hear the influence.
Nice. Had never heard of Inhaler. And, yep, there’s definitely some U2 in there.
It could be a double-edged sword. On the one hand, it might get the band some attention; on the other hand, they definitely will want to develop their own sound. Which they probably will.
They have released seven singles so far- this is the only song I’ve heard. I’d say they have potential.. agree they will need their own sound. They’ve had 3 Top 40 hits in Belgium!
I like it!
The same way I felt when I heard Julian Lennon in the mid80s with his song Valotte. I heard it while waiting tables in a popular local fastfood chain and he sounded so much like John
It has to be hard following fathers who are legends in the same field…
Julian, Sean, Dhani, James all of them enjoy minimal.success in their music career. Not being a front man is better I think looking at Zak Starkey here.
i was thinking that with Bono’s son- being in a group may prove better than being a solo artist. I agree with you on Zak- he’s been very successful as a drummer- and not having to carry the weight of songwriting and being a front line act on his shoulders.
I hope Bono’s son would succeed, too. I got to know his band through you and i will be in the lookout for other materials the band will produce 😊😊😊
