Disko Volante are a new funk rock power trio from Drogheda consisting of lead singing
bassist Ellen O’Reilly, drummer Deggs Curran and guitarist Ross Leahy. Formed during
lockdown as a songwriting project between Ross and Ellen, the pair felt the songs they were
writing deserved to be fleshed out in a full band format. Formed post covid, the band have
just released their debut EP featuring three original tracks and aim to hit live circuit hard in
2023. Ellen, having recently relocated home after working for the last decade as a session
bassist in London, had a number of original tunes up her sleeve as did Ross. The natural
progression was to launch their own music via their new band; Disko Volante. Drawing from
influences such as the Red Hot Chilli Peppers, Mr Bungle and Faith No More, Disko Volante
intend on bringing back the funk element to homegrown original music.
