Punk Music Dropkick Murphys

Songs and Lirycs

1996 - Quincy, Massachusetts

The Dropkick Murphys started playing together in the basement of a friend's barbershop. Discovering that they were creating a sound that was innovative and fun, they decided to make a go at becoming a band.

Through years of constant touring, attachment to issues and charities and a now-legendary annual St. Patrick's Day celebration in Boston, the band has attracted commercial success and a very devoted following.

The band plays Celtic punk, employing traditional Irish music mixed with hardcore and street punk, making a heavier sound than their progenitors, the Pogues.

Early Releases and Lineup Changes:

After releasing a few EPs, the Murphys were signed to Hellcat Records and they released their first full-length album Do Or Die in 1997. Shortly thereafter, frontman Mike McColgan left the band to pursue his lifelong dream of being a Boston firefighter. He would later reemerge on the musical scene fronting the Street Dogs.
