In the organizer's words:
THE SCRATCH announce headline tour for winter 2026!
"Both bark and bite in full effect", Kerrang! praised THE SCRATCH's album "Pull Like A Dog", which was released in March, and confirmed that the music has enough power to thrill large festival crowds. It is now clear when the Irish high-voltage musicians will be presenting their new songs in Germany.
Following tours in Australia, the UK and the USA in spring and summer, The Scratch will be heading over to mainland Europe for a headline run in November. DUG will be there as special guests.
Based in Dublin, the quartet's style is somewhere between punk and folk, metal and acoustic. Their music was part of the soundtrack to the series "House Of Guinness" (by "Peaky Blinders" creator Steven Knight) and was played on both BBC Radio 1 and BBC Radio 6. It all started with a video of their performance at the Rory Gallagher International Festival in Ballyshannon, which went viral and made the band bigger than they had ever hoped. Thanks to their second album "Mind Yourself" (2023), The Scratch eventually climbed to #1 on the Irish Vinyl Charts and #3 on the IRMA Weekly Album Chart, were nominated for Irish Album of the Year at The Choice Music Prize and landed an appearance on Ireland's leading TV show The Late Late Show.
However, The Scratch's main discipline remains undoubtedly live performance. In recent months, they have toured North America with Dropkick Murphys, wowed audiences at festivals across Europe (including Download Festival), accompanied Dermot Kennedy in Australia and are showing no signs of slowing down.
Guitarist Conor has this to say about the freshly released new album "Pull Like A Dog": "As a band, this feels like a new beginning. I think the changes we've faced have given us a lot of room to grow, maybe into roles we felt were off limits before. Openness, perseverance, and positivity - this album embodies all of that."
The Scratch are Conor Dockery, Cathal McKenna, Daniel Lang and Gary Regan.
