This band of misfits have been bringing their brand of floor-stomping Celtic punk rock to venues all over Southern California and beyond for the past 4 years. While their sound is rooted in traditional Irish folk, the 7 members of The Mighty Regis implement a variety of different influences into their music. Often likened to bands like The Pogues, whose lead singer Franky McNorman refers to as the “Old Guard,” The Mighty Regis also infuse the likes of The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, NOFX, Beastie Boys, Johnny Cash, The Clash, The Grateful Dead, The Bouncing Souls and The Police into what they do.
After arriving in Los Angeles, TMR soon landed a residency at Molly Malone’s Pub, birthplace of their good friends, the infamous Flogging Molly. After playing countless gigs all over Southern California, the band began to spread their sound, putting together their own tours of the East Coast, the Bay area, and Las Vegas. They were invited to numerous festivals, including New Music West (Vancouver), the Neon Reverb Festival (Las Vegas), and the California Music Festival (Ventura). In 2010, they accepted a spot on the 2010 Vans Warped Tour, hand-picked by tour founder Kevin Lyman to play 26 dates on the “Kevin Says” Stage. An ultimate goal for any punk band, THE MIGHTY REGIS are taking that experience and moving forward, spreading their unique brand of Celtic Punk to a whole new stable of fans.
