It’s been a few years since LA Celtic punk band Flogging Molly released their last album but fans got a taste of things to come earlier this year with a new single “The Hand of John L. Sullivan” released in time for St. Paddy’s. The band is currently on tour and will be at the Cabooze Plaza on 8/10. Tickets are still available HERE
Founded in 1997 the seven-piece band has always defied categorization. The infectious originality of their songs is a badge of honor and key to the band’s creativity, their urgency. They infuse punk rock with Celtic instruments—violin, mandolin and the accordion—and they merge blues progressions with grinding guitars and traditional Irish music.
Opening for them is Frank Turner whose live show is as wild and energetic as Flogging Molly’s. This should make for a great Wednesday evening.
