Bio
Irish folk rock group formed in 1992 by Shane MacGowan as Shane MacGowan And The Popes, but also recording and performing on their own. After the death of founding member Tom McManamon in 2006, the band re-emerged with a new lineup led by founding member Paul McGuinness, but has been inactive since he suffered a head injury in 2013.
