Dropkick Murphys are headed your way soon with a show in Clearwater at The Baycare Sound on March 8. This date is part of the Boston band’s annual St. Patrick’s Day tour and will include support from The Menzingers and Teenage Bottlerocket.

Dropkick Murphys frontman Ken Casey said, “2025 is year 29 of Dropkick Murphys — and we’re excited as hell to bring our annual St. Patrick’s Day Tour to 14 cities leading into our hometown stand in Boston!!” During the 2025 trek, fans will have the chance to hear Dropkick Murphys’ classics, along with their recently released single “Sirens” – and possibly other new songs from their next album, slated for release via the band’s Dummy Luck Music / [PIAS] sometime in 2025. Fueled by an infectious, hard-hitting guitar riff and frontman Ken Casey’s raw, intense, and commanding vocals. “Sirens” – which is now charting at rock, alternative and active rock radio – is a rallying cry for unity, urging fans to rise against those who exploit the working class. The song was produced by longtime DKM collaborator Ted Hutt and was mixed by Ted Hutt and Ryan Mall.

Dropkick Murphys recently wrapped their acoustic journey with Woody Guthrie to get back to raucous, electric performances, and capped that chapter off with their documentary – This Machine Rising — a movie about working class music. The film chronicles Dropkick Murphys’ journey with the lyrics of Woody Guthrie, including the writing, recording and touring surrounding Dropkick Murphys’ two acoustic albums This Machine Still Kills Fascists and Okemah Rising. Both albums blow the dust off unrecorded lyrics from the Woody Guthrie archive and set them to the new music and melodies of Dropkick Murphys, shining a light on issues of Woody’s day that we still grapple with in modern times. Watch This Machine Rising below:

Dropkick Murphys are: Ken Casey (lead vocals), Tim Brennan (guitars, tin whistle, accordion, piano, vocals), Jeff DaRosa (guitars, banjo, mandolin, vocals), Matt Kelly (drums, percussion, and vocals), James Lynch (guitars and vocals), and Kevin Rheault (bass). Joining the band for their live shows is bagpiper and multi-instrumentalist Campbell Webster.
