Drink Hunters is a Catalan band from Barcelona and surroundings. Their music is a mix of punk rock, hardcore punk, folk music and Celtic music with traditional melodies and musical instruments like tin whistle and fiddle. This musical style is commonly called Celtic punk or folk punk. Their lyrics, sung in English, talk about social criticism, diverse historical events, and drinking and partying.

History

Drink Hunters was created in 2008 in Barcelona. Aaron (lead vocals and bassist) and Pau (drums and vocals) chose the Celtic punk way after some music projects. They mentioned it to Raja (guitarist and vocals), and then they looked for musicians who play traditional instruments to complete their punk rock mixed with Irish folk influences. They called Rosa (accordion) and Nando (fiddle) for that.
