After two years in labour, The Dreadnoughts are proud to announce the arrival of a healthy, bouncy new album, “ROLL AND GO”, for release on June 24. For now, you can listen to the first single: “Cider Holiday”, and there’s more coming soon.

After a decade we decided to press another 500 of this masterpiece. Get em while they are HOT off the press. Expecting to have them ready to mail out in the THIRD week of Feb 2021!

We decided to visit our European tour roots, Germany, Czech, Switzerland. No better way to spend the first two weeks of 2020 than freezing on the Autobahn listening to Kraftwerk 🙂

We decided to pay for a couple of fans to come on tour with us for a couple of days back in April, as part of a surprise birthday present. Best decision ever! Tal and Wheely-Ben turned out to be delightful folks, and they even brought a couple of cameras onstage to record our concert at Live Music Hall in Koln. Enjoy…

Yes, that is correct, we have a documentary.

Well, here’s something that has never, to our knowledge, been attempted: a folk-punk concept album.  The genre has so many classics… the Pogues’  Rum, Sodomy and the Lash, Flogging Molly’s Drunken Lullabies, Gogol Bordello’s Gypsy Punks.  But none of these are concept albums.  So why not give it a go?

The result, dear old friends, is Foreign Skies, an album that commemorates the 100-year anniversary of the First World War.  It’s a challenging album.  Some people are going to hate how it opens.  Some people are going to hate some stuff in the middle.  Some people are going to wonder why we’re not singing about gin and poutine.

Those people can all fuck off, ’cause Foreign Skies is awesome.
