They sounded like any band in a Dublin rehearsal room. But there was something quite extraordinary about the five-piece outfit heard running through their set in a city centre rehearsal space this week.
Their lead singer is Oscar-nominated actor Michael Fassbender – star of movie Shame – and his backing band included rising Irish movie talent Domhnall Gleeson and Carla Azar, Jack's White percussionist, on drums.

However, this band were not rehearsing for a gig in Whelan's, but a starring role in director Lenny Abrahamson's new Irish movie Frank.
"Fingers crossed, my keyboards make it to the soundtrack and I don't get replaced in the mix. They might just be saying to me 'you sound great' before they get a real keyboard player in to replace me," Domhnall Gleeson told The Diary.
Co-star Michael Fassbender could be more confident about his vocals and guitar, having once fronted a heavy metal band in his hometown of Killarney as a teenager.
