Acrpost: A Project of the Pacific Association of Artist Run Centres

Event Description

St Patrick's Day eve will never be the same after you experience it with The Peelers!

Born out of the Scots Gaelic and Irish culture of Glengarry County, Trad and Punk Rock meet head-on, reflecting the North American experience of the diaspora with a tip of the newsboy cap to the Quebecois narrative, and the lure of Boston and New York.

Songwriter Dave Barton’s lyrics blend truth and fiction, glory and sport, love and loss, darkness, and despair, while introducing composites of individuals, companions, friends, and foes met along the musical journey. The band are heading into their 26 th year and have toured extensively sharing stages with diverse notable names such as Flogging Molly, The Pogues, Lagwagon, Andrew WK, Tommy Makem, The Mahones, Face to Face, and many others.
