Drummer Seeks Musicians, part three: Sing a New Song

Drummer Seeks Musicians: The Making of U2 | 23 sep 2026 | 00:55:41

U2's rise begins in earnest with a television appearance, a talent contest win and the arrival of manager Paul McGuinness. But underpinning their success lies a deeper story of friendship, faith and loss.


In the final episode Róisín Ingle speaks to Bono, The Edge, Adam Clayton and Larry Mullen Jr and asks the question at the heart of this series - not just how U2 came together, but how they have managed to stay and play together for the past fifty years.


Story Lines is the home of audio storytelling from The Irish Times.


Drummer Seeks Musicians: The Making of U2 is presented, written, researched and produced by Róisín Ingle.


Editing by Rob Sutton.


Additional production by Suzanne Brennan.


The podcast is dedicated to Donald Moxham.


Thanks to the staff at Mount Temple, to U2 and to everyone who took part in the podcast.
