Prior to starting the band the members were involved in various other groups playing Irish folk, rock and punk. To combine the different elements somehow seemed like a good idea. After putting together a decent setlist Finnegan's Hell ventured on a club tour in Scandinavia, which was followed by a bunch of festival gigs. The songs went down well with the audience, so the band decided to sneak into the studio to lay down some tracks. An EP was finally released in 2011. It received rave reviews and sold out in no time. More important though, it also meant the possibility for the band to play all over Europe.

Finnegan’s Hell has just finished recording a full-length album, which will be released by Heptown Records, Europe’s leading Celtic punk label. The album ”Drunk, Sick And Blue” will feature original material for the most part, but also include some traditional songs that translate well into punk. ”Drunk, Sick And Blue” promises a fuller sound than the old EP, since the line-up now includes accordion. The title track was released on as a single on iTunes and Spotify on June 4th, 2014 along with a video directed by Michael Ek. Check it out on Youtube: http://youtu.be/uburtowV8yQ
