Danny O'Reilly frontman with The Coronas.

Danny O'Reilly, frontman in The Coronas, hit all the right notes as he inspired North London Shamrocks to their first London IFC crown.

Lining out at wing forward, O'Reilly - son of Irish singing sensation Mary Black - bagged 1-2 as St Brendan's were downed on a scoreline of 3-12 to 1-9 in Sunday's decider at The Emerald GAA Grounds.

This is the first major piece of silverware garnered by the club during its ten-year history and the success means they will play senior football for the first time next season.

Better known as the dulcet-toned frontman in Irish indie rock act, The Coronas, who are set to unleash their fourth full-length album this month, O'Reilly - who now resides in Highbury - represented Dublin at minor level in 2003 and played senior club football for Templeogue Synge Street.
