Sultans of Ping F.C. was established by Niall and Pat in Cork in Ireland at the beginning of 1989. They loved Ramones, Black Beer and Women's clothes. They met Morty and then in September 1991, Alan joined. Sammy from the Golden Horde joined in early 1995. They have now dropped the F.C and the Ping, and are just the Sultans.

The Sultans are a unique mix of rock, punk, energy and humour, influenced by bands like Shonen Knife, Ramones and Carter USM. Fronted by the mad Niall O'Flaherty they made an amazing live band.

In December 1997 they called it a day.
