The Dreadnoughts

Formed in 2006 in Vancouver’s legendary Ivanhoe Hotel, The Dreadnoughts deliver a furious mix of Celtic punk, polka, klezmer, and sea shanties. Despite global distances, personal commitments, and the pandemic, they recorded their fifth album, Roll and Go, in just nine days, featuring six guest musicians remotely. The record is energetic, defiant, and a bold reaffirmation of the band’s identity, blending folk traditions with punk intensity. Praised for their instrumental virtuosity and live power, The Dreadnoughts continue to captivate a growing global audience of Celtic and punk music fans.
