The band will perform at the Aztec Theatre Sept. 10 with The Bronx and Valdoliers opening.
This year marks Celtic-punk heavyweights Flogging Molly's 25th year as a band. At least that was when singer-guitarist Dave King and fiddle player Bridget Regan — also King's future wife — began putting the pieces together.Anthem
"I remember when we first started — I won't mention the radio station — but they did a battle of the bands, and they'd play four songs by four bands. Whoever had the most requests at the end of the week would be immediately put on their playlist," King recalled in a recent phone interview."And we won hands down, and they refused to play the song on the radio. Their excuse was, 'Well, it's only your fans that are calling in.
But having been forced off the road and into isolation by the pandemic, King, Regan and the other band members — Dennis Casey , Matt Hensley , Nathen Maxwell , Spencer Swain and Mike Alonso — wanted to go back to how Flogging Molly started. That meant recording together live with no attempts to dress up the sound with studio finesse.
By the time Flogging Molly arrived at Albini's Electrical Audio Studio in Chicago, the band had composed and arranged nearly all the songs for. The sole exception was the closer,"The Parting Wave," which was written and arranged during the session.
