The Lookalikes
The Lookalikes were undoubtedly the most popular Irish band playing around Dublin and the rest of Ireland during the early eighties. The Lookalikes had a massive loyal following and broke attendance records in every major music venue in Dublin.
Eventually they signed to Riva Records, who also had Rod Stewart and John Cougar on their books. The band were offered the opportunity to tour the UK with Thin Lizzy, which they did with great success. The band released three singles on the Riva label but - due to "differences of musical opinion" - eventually parted ways, and released the album "Daydreamin at Night" for Warner Brothers in Ireland - the final recording by the band. After another tour with Thin Lizzy throughout Europe, the band eventually broke up shortly after their return to Ireland.
Singer, guitarist and songwriter Sean O'Connor was one of the founding members of The Lookalikes and since has been privileged to play with some of the "greats" of the music business including Les Paul, Clarence Clemons, Roger Daltrey, Phil Lynott, Brian Downey, John Entwistle, Snowy White, Scott Gorham, Lou Marini, Mark Breziki, Eric Bell and various others.
