Dropkick Murphys will be making their trek to the new Radius venue located in Chicago, IL on Saturday Feb. 26 along with The Bombpops and The Rumjacks.  I finally had the opportunity to see Dropkick Murphys in 2019 when they played at Louder Than Life festival in Louisville, KY.  
​
The energy and passion Dropkick Murphys bring to the stage is unrivaled for a group with almost 30 years under their belt.  Not only am I looking forward to the St. Patricks Day Tour and seeing them but a band on the bill has put out some incredible music as well, that being The Rumjacks. 
​Check out the Official Press Release below. 

Dropkick Murphys are excited to bring back tradition in 2022 with the return of their St. Patrick’s Day Tour, kicking off February 21 in Reading, PA and culminating with the band’s customary run of St. Patrick’s Day week hometown shows in Boston, MA--including three shows at House Of Blues and one at Roadrunner.

Dropkick Murphys will be joined by special guests The Bombpops and The Rumjacks for most shows on the 22-date run. Jim Lindberg of Pennywise is also confirmed as a special guest for the March 20 Boston show, performing in support of his new Ted Hutt-produced solo album Songs From the Elkhorn Trail, out digitally November 19 via Epitaph.

Tickets on sale NOW  at www.DropkickMurphys.com.
 The return of Dropkick Murphys’ St. Patrick’s Day Tour follows back-to-back years of widely-viewed and highly-acclaimed live streamed Dropkick Murphys St. Patrick’s Day concerts: 2020’s Streaming Up From Boston and 2021’s Dropkick Murphys St. Patrick’s Day Stream 2021...Still Locked Down, which topped Pollstar’s Livestream Chart.

Along with Streaming Outta Fenway in 2020 – the first-ever concert performed on the hallowed infield of Boston’s Fenway Park – and the band’s Turn Up That Dial Album Release Party in 2021, these four free live streamed concerts (with no in-person audience) were watched over 17 million times, raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for DKM’s charity The Claddagh Fund and other nonprofits, and were featured on CBS This Morning Saturday, CNN, NBC Nightly News, The Late Show With Stephen Colbert, and in the Wall Street Journal, Forbes, and many more.

From August through mid-October of 2021, Dropkick Murphys returned to the road for their first live shows since the pandemic began, touring the U.S. with Rancid on the co-headlining Boston To Berkeley II Tour, which also featured performances at Riot Fest in Chicago and Aftershock in Sacramento.
Dropkick Murphys’ latest album, Turn Up That Dial, released April 30 via DKM’s own Born & Bred Records, is their tenth studio album, and fourth consecutive Billboard top 10 album debut, joining 11 Short Stories Of Pain & Glory (2017), Signed and Sealed in Blood (2013), and Going Out In Style (2011). Overall, Dropkick Murphys’ music has generated half a billion streams, they’ve quietly moved 8 million-plus units worldwide and the band has sold out gigs on multiple continents.

NEW MUSIC: Columbus, OH based Rock Band SOUTH OF EDEN follows up their blistering cover of the 1984 B-Side favorite "Drop Dead Legs" with their newest, classic rock gem "Lone Riders" - LISTEN TO IT HERE

Columbus, OH based Rock Band SOUTH OF EDEN follows up their blistering cover of the 1984 B-Side favorite "Drop Dead Legs" with their newest, classic rock gem "Lone Riders". Directed, Filmed, and Edited by John Payne, the ferocious, guitar driven new single was produced by front-man Ehab Omran and Jakob Mooney.
Fans can catch the band live February 18th at Southgate House Revival in Newport, KY, tickets are available online HERE.

​"We chose ‘Lone Riders’ as our first single because we felt the high-energy music and down to earth lyrics encapsulate everything about this band. It’s about being broke, overlooked, and over being on the outside looking in. You deal with it by getting high and watching life go by because you can’t afford to keep up with it.
It’s a mixture of a lot of things. We’re ‘classically rock’ influenced, but listen to so many different genres and eras that there are a lot of different feelings in our music.
When you hear us, I want you to walk away thinking, ‘That was honest and different'. We’re just doing what we do. We’re proof you can do anything you want and shouldn’t compromise your dreams.” - EHAB OMRAN (vocals)

Texas Rock Band BLACKTOP MOJO has delivered the ultimate Valentine's card lament with their newest release, an unexpected and yet deeply poignant cover of The TEMPTATION'S 1965 hit single, "My Girl." Celebrating love while acknowledging the potential for loss, front-man MATT JAMES delivers an intensely emotional vocal performance, with the band providing an incredibly modern, bluesy backdrop on the iconic classic.

The single will be available to purchase / stream on February 25, 2022.
​
“We all know this song. It’s a song that comes on the radio or starts playing in the background as you’re in the grocery store and immediately you begin to hum along and have visions of the new girl you’re falling head over heels for, and you feel all the warm fuzzy feelings she gives you, welling up inside. Our version of the song is when you fast forward into that relationship with the same girl that gave you all that warmth and sunshine, but she’s up and left you and taken the ‘Month of May’ with her.” - Matt James
