St. Patrick's Day celebration with The Walker Roaders!The Celtic-punk supergroup featuring James Fearnley (The Pogues), Ted Hutt (Flogging Molly, producer for Dropkick Murphys, Gaslight Anthem, and many more, with a Grammy win), and Marc Orrell (Dropkick Murphys).
The trio met in the U.S. and released their self-titled debut album in 2019, co-written by the members with lyrics by Fearnley and produced by Hutt. Their music combines traditional instruments like accordion, mandolin, and banjo with rock elements, drawing on their deep roots in the Celtic-punk genre. The band's name comes from a street gang from Fearnley's childhood in Manchester. Fearnley was previously associated with The Nipple Erectors and later formed The Low and Sweet Orchestra before co-founding Cranky George. Hutt was a founding member of Flogging Molly, and Orrell joined Dropkick Murphys at age 17 as a multi-instrumentalist. Their 2019 album, featuring Brad Wood and Bryan Head on the rhythm section, showcases the full gamut of Celtic-punk, from the scathing ballad "Lord Randall’s Bastard Son" to the tolling waltz "The Blackbird Only Knows One Song."
