THE NEW SINGLE FROM GREENLAND WHALEFISHERS COMES ASHORE!

After almost a quarter of a century at the forefront of the Celtic-Punk scene Norway’s Irish Folk-Punk ambassadors Greenland Whalefishers show they still got plenty more in the barrel with a new single taken from the upcoming album Based On A True Story set for release next month.

Way back when the Mollys and the Dropkicks were just a twinkle in the eye a band from Bergen in Norway took to the stage to play their first ever gig. That day when Greenland Whalefishers played their very first concert on 8th March, 1994 saw the first major development in Celtic-Punk since Shane MacGowan and The Pogues first thought of combining British punk with Celtic/Irish folk influences. More than two decades later they are still going strong and have played just about every corner of the world. ‘K Says’ is the first single from the new upcoming studio album Based On A True Story which will be released on the anniversary of that night nearly twenty-five years ago. After the album release concert at home in Bergen, the band will play concerts in Germany, France and the Czech Republic.
