A Budapest crew mixing Irish folk, punk energy, and sea shanties since 2008.
For a quick sense of their sound, try 'Sail Away' or 'Brotherhood.' They're both good examples of how the band handles anthemic, sea-worn themes.
They've carved out a specific lane, blending mandolin and accordion with rock drums and punk vocals. Songs like 'Sail Away' show how they turn folk storytelling into something you can shout along to. Their albums, from 'Rats on the Run' to 'Songs for the Apocalypse,' keep that spirit loud and rowdy.
They started in 2008 with Vince Pattison on vocals and a lineup heavy on violin and guitar. By 2014's 'Songs of Gold and Bone,' they were writing tracks like 'Where Red Paints the Ocean,' and later albums added mandolin and accordion players to the fold.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
