The Scratch are a band that just don’t seem to fit in anywhere, but have proven to fit in everywhere. Starting out with just acoustic guitars and a wooden box, the band created an immediate buzz in their hometown of Dublin, Ireland. Incapable of keeping themselves boxed in to one singular genre, they meander intentionally around heavy metal, Irish folk music, stadium rock and post-punk.

Constantly evolving both creatively and sonically, never taking themselves as individuals too seriously while always putting their souls into the music. They have won the hearts of anyone that has experienced their live shows, which have garnered a cult-like following in Ireland, the UK and most recently mainland Europe and North America.

Hot off the back of their UK headline tour after supporting Dropkick Murphys around the world, join The Scratch for an Australian exclusive headline live at the Howler, this Saturday 15 March.
