Sir Reg – The Underdogs – the brand new album, out September 21st on Despotz Records
13th August 2018SIR REG is an energetic six piece from Sweden fronted by Irishman Brendan Sheehy on vocals, who left his home-town of Dublin to come to Sweden to fulfil his dream – to put together the most amazing band possible. With songs about everything from the issues of modern day society to finding the right bar on a Saturday night, combined with strong melodies and explosive live shows, SIR REG have made a name for themselves in the Celtic punk and rock scene. Since the birth of the band in 2009 they have released four critically acclaimed albums and have performed on many of Europe’s biggest stages alongside bands like The Mahones, The Misfits, Thin Lizzy and The Real McKenzies.
‘The Underdogs’, the band’s latest album, captures the raw essence of the Sir Reg raucous live show. From the chaotic first single ‘F.O.O.L (Fight of our Lives)’, through the infectious title track and onto their tribute to UFC legend ‘Conor McGregor’, Sir Reg embrace traditional Irish folk music, unforgettable melodies, propelled by an driving, energetic punk rock backing.
The band will touring the UK in October 2018 (dates to follow) and will be playing a very special, exclusive showcase gig in London on August 22nd.
“… SIR REG kicked off the proceedings and blasted out their music like A SWIFT BLOW TO THE FACE! Their stage presence is overwhelmingly energetic, an energy that is projected right into the heart of the audience …” – Jim Bergqvist, Rockbladet
