The Undertones emerged from Derry in 1976 as the result of five friends John O’Neill, Damian O’Neill, Feargal Sharkey, Billy Doherty and Michael Bradley learning how to play rock and roll.

Practising in their bedrooms eventually led to the band recording John O’Neill’s Teenage Kicks in 1978 on Terri Hooley's Good Vibrations label in Belfast.
The legendary DJ John Peel received a copy and liked it so much he played it twice in a row on his radio show.
The Undertones signed with Sire Records and ‘Teenage Kicks’ was re-released, resulting in the band's first appearance on Top Of The Pops.
Over the next five years, John O Neill, crafted further pop gems such as Here Comes The Summer, Jimmy Jimmy, You’ve Got My Number (Why Don’t You Use It) and Wednesday Week.
Meanwhile Damian O’Neill and Michael Bradley contributed ‘My Perfect Cousin.
