Flatfoot 56 Odd Boat

Flatfoot 56 releasing 'Odd Boat' (stream "Penny"), going on Flogging Molly cruise

Chicago Celtic punks Flatfoot 56 have been at it for over 15 years now, and they’ll release their seventh album Odd Boat on April 28 via Sailor’s Grave Records. We’re premiering “Penny” from the album, a rager fleshed out by some nice Celtic instrumentation with lovely guest vocals from Il Neige to balance out Tobin Bawinkel’s gruff rasp.

“‘Penny’ is a look at the way that we, as people, often consider ourselves unworthy of a second chance, while all the while it is staring us in the face, begging us to notice,” Tobin tells us. Check it out below. Pre-order the album from Sailor’s Grave or PledgeMusic.

Flatfoot 56 will set sail aboard Flogging Molly’s Salty Dog Cruise in celebration of St. Patrick’s Day (though it’s actually the weekend before St. Patrick’s Day). They also have a bunch of West Coast dates with Larry and His Flask. All dates are listed below.
