Kevin Rheault has been released, a song composed from an old piece of music during the North American tour in support of Dropkick Murphys, and immediately added to the set list, perfect for previewing their latest album ‘Pull Like A Dog’.\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\nMagnetic, hypnotic, almost hieratic, it is in the live dimension that they give their best, leaving everyone breathless.\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\nConor ‘Dock’ Dockery: guitar, backing vocals\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\nGary ‘Snakeskin’ Regan: guitar, backing vocals\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\nCathal McKenna: bass, backing vocals\n\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\nDaniel ‘Lango’ Lang: cajón, percussion, vocals","brand":"Montelago Celtic Festival","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57547815518553,"sku":null,"price":0.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0610\/2256\/8621\/files\/MCF26_The_Scratch.jpg?v=1773314297","url":"https:\/\/www.montelagocelticfestival.it\/en\/products\/the-scratch","provider":"Montelago Celtic Festival","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
