* High energy Celtic punk and good ol American psychobilly meet up for this epic sound!

Hailing from upstate NY, Celtic rockers 1916 are an explosive concoction of the modern Irish American Punk movement with an original mix of psychobilly which gives them a sound that stands apart from other bands of the gere.

Starting as an acoustic duo in 2006, singer Billy Herring and original drummer Steve LaDue played the traditional Irish ballads of the Dubliners and Wolfe Tones in the local pubs in and around their home-town of Rochester, NY. They decided to call themselves 1916 to honor and promote Irish history among fans. It wasn't long until they took the music to a new level with the addition of electric guitars, traditional instruments, and a full drum set. Within a few months of trying their new sound, 1916 were opening for the likes of the Dropkick Murphys, Twenty One Pilots, Flogging Molly, Rancid, The Offspring, and New Politics, among other national acts. They have also shared the stage with Jimmy Fallon at a sold out show in Rochester, NY!

Now, years later, 1916 has partnered with Grammy award wining producer Ted Hutt to create their sixth full length studio album, Conscience of Kings, released under the Label Group/The Virgin Music Group! They’re your favorite band’s favorite band. 1916 combines the passion of Irish Punk with the fire of American Psychobilly to create a sound all their own.
