The Bloody Irish Boys

The Bloody Irish Boys, best described as a drinking group with a music problem, was started several years ago as a vision by frontman Shayne Underwood as a way to preserve the sound of their roots and hold tribute to the ones before them. They accomplish this by incorporating music such as traditional irish and bluegrass into a more up to date rock band. By doing this, The Bloody Irish Boys have created a very unique intense sound that people describe as more folk than most modern music yet more punk than most popular music. The band released their debut album Drunk Rock to the public in 2005 and has built up a very strong word-of-mouth following with its music presence on the internet. So be sure to stop by their website http://www.myspace.com/thebloodyirishboys to order a copy of the album or for more info on the band.
