The Curbside Saints, in short, are a band that never fail to energize with their brand of Irish-influenced punk rock. Compared to stand-out bands such as Dropkick Murphys and Flogging Molly, the music of the Curbside Saints begs to be accompanied by an ice-cold beer and group of friends.
The name seems a natural choice for a band with the back-story of this group. Before the band came together, Nick Weiten and John Gilliam wanted an escape from the small town that they had seen trap those around them. They left their Tennessee homes and embarked on a journey to New Jersey. “Curbside Saints” refers directly to the time that Nick and John spent playing acoustic songs on the city streets.Their experiences in the "Garden State" provided a wealth of inspiration that is evident in the music. Many tracks on the debut album explicitly reference this period in their lives, and others are assuredly influenced by it.
The Curbside Saints debut, an abundance of youthful zest and an intriguing backstory, mean nothing in the music industry without the final product of a strong album. Lucky for this group, their album not only reflects an energy that is sure to carry over into their performances, but also displays a knack for delivering meaningful lyrical content over tracks with a varied range of styles.The very first song, “Never Back Down”, sets the tone with a heart pounding pace and a drumline that keeps you on edge while the uplifting lyrics whisk by in toe. The mild tempoed “Tennessee” exemplifies the type of ballad that the Saints are capable of producing. A catchy chorus, sure to ring true to any of you from the state, holds together this musical tale of their search for betterment. Keeping with the drinking theme commonly found in the Celtic punk genre, “Hit The Floor” offers what could become a bar anthem worthy of the culture that inspired this musical style. You’ll find yourself singing along with the simple yet effective chorus almost immediately whether or not you frequent the bar scene.

Hailing from Boston, Massachusetts, Lenny and the Piss Poor Boys play country & western the way the Clash or the Ramones might have if they'd grown up on Waylon Jennings instead of the New York Dolls. Fronted by singer/guitarist Lenny Lashley (Darkbuster), and rounded out by upright bassist Jon Johnson (Bourbonaires), guitarist/steel guitarist Chris DeBarge (Curses/Speed Devils/Stumbleweeds), and drummer Tommy Long (Dogmatics), the band recorded their eponymous debut album during the summer of 2004 at Basement 247 Studios in Allston.
	Produced by Chris DeBarge and engineered by Basement 247's Jack Younger, "Lenny and the Piss Poor Boys" features ten bourbon-soaked tunes including "Lonely Days and Whiskey Nights", "Cambridgeport Saloon" and "Two Robbers" - as well as a cover of the classic late '70s Lowenbrau beer theme, "Here's to Good Friends". Since 2002 Lenny and the Piss Poor Boys have built a devoted following among both country and punk audiences through New England.
Finally, with the release of "Lenny and the Piss Poor Boys", here's your opportunity to find out why. So pour yourself a shot or four of Jim Beam at 2am, light up a smoke, put on "Lenny and the Piss Poor Boys", and think about lost opportunities and broken hearts. That's country music, that's punk rock, and that's Lenny and the Piss Poor Boys.

A band that begs to be listened to. This is hardcore that stands tall and alone. Drawing influence from all the hardcore bands before them, yet taking the reins and focusing hardcore music in a defined and forward direction.

These themes transcend musical boundaries and tie us together in a world gone wrong. Catch them all over the east coast playing with such legends as Madball, Agnostic Front and Murphy's Law. Working class sound never sounded so good.

The Dicemen aim for total world domination. But if that's aiming too high this irresistible trio will be satisfied by making a lot of shows by spilling blood, sweat, and tears.
