With their 4th album "Dogs on the Leash" "The O'Reillys and the Paddyhats" present the more than worthy successor of their chart success "Green Blood". The music of the "Paddyhats", with it's life-affirming and also mystical Irish folk, is reminiscent of a stray mutt, who brings along captivating, often funny but sometimes sad stories from his adventures.

Typical Irish melodies meet hard electric guitars and fuse an ancient music culture with the modern world. If you have never left a club dancing, singing and staggering, you don't know what it means to have seen the band live. The O'Reillys and the Paddyhats bring their Irish folk punk to your head, legs and soul! Never keep the "dogs on the leash" !
