Dropkick Murphys recently announced they’ll release a 12-inch vinyl split LP with tourmates Haywire titled “New England Forever.” The Boston-based bands–who got to know each other while touring Europe together last fall–each recorded three original songs as well as a cover version of one of each other’s songs for the 8-song LP. Haywire recorded Dropkick Murphys’ “The Boys Are Back” and Dropkick Murphys recorded Haywire’s “Always By My Side.” New England Forever will be available exclusively at shows during Dropkick Murphys’ February 9 – March 17 For The People…In The Pit St. Patrick’s Day Tour.
Dropkick Murphys are touring in support of their 2025 “For The People” album, which shows courage and confidence, speaking up against the injustices happening in the United States, and doing so with the strength and power that harken back to Dropkick Murphys’ earliest punk rock roots. “For The People” is more than a title. It’s a heartfelt stance, a declaration of who this band is – and who they’ve always been. Dropkick Murphys continue to advocate for workers’ rights and human rights – as they have done for their entire nearly 30-year career.
Dropkick Murphys are:
Ken Casey (vocals)
Tim Brennan (guitars, tin whistle, accordion, piano, vocals)
Jeff DaRosa (guitars, banjo, mandolin, vocals)
Matt Kelly (drums, percussion, vocals)
James Lynch (guitars, vocals)
