MONTCLAIR, NJ — Dropkick Murphys will be dropping by North Jersey for a concert this winter.

According to a news release from the Wellmont:

“Dropkick Murphys proudly remain Boston’s rock ‘n’ roll underdogs turned champions. Since 1996, the boys have created the kind of music that’s meant to be chanted at last call, in packed arenas, and during the fourth quarter, third period, or ninth inning of a comeback rally.

“Dropkick Murphys’ music has generated half-a-billion streams, they’ve quietly moved eight million-plus units worldwide and the band has sold out gigs on multiple continents. Dropkick Murphys’ official charity, The Claddagh Fund, has raised over $20 million to support non-profit organizations that are focused on children, veterans and addiction recovery. In 2020, the band was one of the first to embrace streaming performances, starting with their Streaming Up From Boston St. Patrick’s Day virtual performance.

“Dropkick Murphys returned in 2022 with their first-ever all-acoustic album, ‘This Machine Still Kills Fascists’ (Dummy Luck Music / Play It Again Sam), and a seated theater tour. ‘This Machine Still Kills Fascists’ – and their follow-up album, ‘Okemah Rising’ – breathe musical life into mostly unpublished lyrics by the legendary Woody Guthrie, curated for the band by Woody’s daughter, Nora Guthrie.

“Dropkick Murphys’ new album ‘For The People’ rises to its moment: an expression of humanity at a time of relentless dehumanization, a promise of hope in an era fueled by fear-mongering, a declaration of solidarity in an age of disunion, a defiant rebuttal to the charlatans and demagogues who seek to divide us for their own power and profit.”
