Dropkick Murphys have announced their 2023 run of St. Patrick’s Day week hometown shows in Boston, including March 17 and 18 at the new MGM Music Hall at Fenway and a March 19 show at House Of Blues Boston. Coming off their first acoustic tour in support of their very special and powerful This Machine Still Kills Fascists album, the band will once again strap on their electric guitars for a full-throttle rock tour which culminates with the St. Patrick’s Day week hometown shows. Very Special guests Turnpike Troubadours join Dropkick Murphys for both shows at MGM Music Hall at Fenway and The Rumjacks and Jesse Ahern each open two shows. Tickets go on sale Friday, September 23 at 10:00 AM ET via Ticketmaster and at www.DropkickMurphys.com.
Turnpike Troubadours’ Evan Felker – who hails from Woody Guthrie’s hometown of Okemah, Oklahoma – also appears as a guest vocalist on Dropkick Murphys’ forthcoming This Machine Still Kills Fascists, trading lines with DKM’s Ken Casey on “The Last One.”
Lineups for the Boston St. Patrick’s Day week shows are as follows:
Friday, March 17 at MGM Music Hall: Dropkick Murphys, Turnpike Troubadours, The Rumjacks
Saturday, March 18 at MGM Music Hall: Dropkick Murphys, Turnpike Troubadours, Jesse Ahern
Sunday, March 19 at House Of Blues: Dropkick Murphys, The Rumjacks, Jesse Ahern
This Machine Still Kills Fascists will be released digitally and on CD September 30 via the band’s Dummy Luck Music / [PIAS], with a special edition vinyl out November 11. TMSKF is unlike anything Dropkick Murphys have done to date: A full album of songs that bring Woody Guthrie’s words to life. Not a tribute album or a collection of covers, This Machine Still Kills Fascists is a collaboration between Dropkick Murphys and Woody Guthrie – artists separated by time and space, but connected by a common philosophy – to create something entirely new. The album’s first single, “Two 6’s Upside Down,” is currently at #11 and climbing on the Americana radio single chart.
Next month, Dropkick Murphys will launch their first-ever reserved seating theater tour – This Machine…Theater Tour – October 20 in support of this very special and powerful acoustic album. Jaime Wyatt will be the main support on this U.S. tour – as well as joining DKM on stage for the duet “Never Git Drunk No More” – and Jesse Ahern will open the shows. Dropkick Murphys’ fall tour dates also include a headlining slot at Punk In The Park in Orange County, CA in November.
