About Dreadnoughts
There is more than one artist with this name, including: 1) a Canadian folk-punk group; 2) a Swedish rock band. 1) The Dreadnoughts is a Canadian folk punk band from Vancouver that combines a wide range of European folk music with modern street punk. One part roaring sea shanty, one part haunting Irish melody, and a solid chaser of gut-crunching street punk. This ragtag group of drunken misfits stays true to the ancient ballads and bawlers that once drove sailors around the world, all the while smashing out modern punk with a fury and intensity that is unmatched anywhere. Formed in 2006 over pints of cheap beer at East Vancouver’s notoriously violent Ivanhoe Hotel, The Dreadnoughts cut their teeth in the roughest dive bars in the city. They started by opening for (and earning the praise of) celtic-punk grandfathers The Real McKenzies, and since then have never looked back. Hauling a fiddle, an accordion, a mandolin, a tin whistle, guitars and drums into every venue that would have them, they quickly became known for their powerful, chaotic live performances. In three short years they have slowly but surely joined the ranks of Canada’s punk rock heroes. 2) The Dreadnoughts was a Swedish rock band that released the album "Cadillac" in 2000.
