Get ready to turn up the volume—Dropkick Murphys are back with their brand-new album For the People, and we’re celebrating in true DIY style at Curious Collections!
Since their start in 1996, the Boston-born Dropkick Murphys have been waving the flag for punk rock, Irish folk, and working-class pride. Known for their raucous live shows, anthemic songs like “Shipping Up to Boston,” and their fierce commitment to community, the band has built a legacy that blends grit, melody, and brotherhood. Their music has soundtracked everything from sports arenas to late-night singalongs, and their latest album proves they haven’t lost an ounce of fire.
Released in July, For the People is a collaboration with artist Shepard Fairey, whose striking design graces the album cover. It’s an album that celebrates unity, defiance, and resilience—themes Dropkick Murphys have championed for decades.
To mark this release, we’re hosting a one-of-a-kind stencil event all weekend, starting Friday, October 10 through Sunday, Oct 12 at Curious Collections. Here’s what’s happening: Party is come and go, so grab a friend and come to Curious Collections to spray paint something.
