Michael Tierney,[1][2] better known as Mick Pyro, is an Irish musician. He is best known as the frontman of the Dublin funk rock band Republic of Loose. He has also participated in other independent work with fellow Irish, and international musicians. He has also written for the Irish Independent.[3] Pyro is known for his distinctive singing and his bearded appearance. He released his first solo album Exit Pyro on 14 July 2023.[4]
But there was Mick Pyro (real name Tierney) commanding the stage, dancing just like Bo Diddley and shooting from the hip just like Jesse James, every one of those kids in the palm of his hand. Mick has been at this act since well before he was 18 and I thought to myself he's getting better with age, even though he is now at least my age. I didn't feel so old then.
Mick Tierney – aka frontman Johnny Pyro – remains the best thing about the group, and his cocksure attitude simply oozes from the speakers.
