Wake The Rebels
2023
“Wake the Rebels” ignites the fire of independence and is a powerful blend of exhilarating sound and fearless spirit. For us, “Wake the Rebels” was a musical break from routine and a call to raise our voices. With its powerful message, the album is a real “wake-up call”. “Wake the Rebels” is not only a musical release, but also a statement that underlines the urgency of change and the importance of standing up for one’s beliefs.

In Strange Waters
2021
“In Strange Waters” is the name of the Paddyhats’ anniversary album on the occasion of their 10th stage anniversary – and rightly so. Because they have put the songs, which have now been viewed more than 70 million times on YouTube, into really unusual genres. Far from their usual Irish folk punk, they steer the ship unerringly into the waters of pop, metal, ska and barbershop music. Still, the band’s identity resonates in every note, because even if the waters are foreign, the ship is the same. The O’Reillys and the Paddyhats, as made clear on their cover, look at each other with completely different eyes and take a step beyond Irish folk punk and not least with a new song that was not actually planned.

Dogs on the Leash
2020
With their 4th album “Dogs on the Leash” the 7 musicians of “The O’Reillys and the Paddyhats” do not leave the dogs on a leash at all. Their rocky-punky music with more than just a dash of life-affirming and sometimes mystical Irish Folk reminds us of a stray mutt who brings back from his travels captivating, often funny but sometimes sad stories and maybe a few fleas. Everything is allowed when Irish melodies meet hard electric guitar and an ancient musical culture meets a modern world. If you don’t leave the club dancing, singing and half staggering, you probably haven’t been to a Paddyhats concert. Because of course there are also enough drinking songs! The O’Reillys and the Paddyhats bring their Irish Folk Punk into your head, your legs and your soul!
Never keep the „Dogs on the Leash“! .

Sign of the Fighter
2017
Once again recorded and produced in the legendary Principal Studios, the Paddyhats have matured and become even more ambitious. 12 songs a short thriller and a challenging cover of the classic “The Boxer” by Simon and Garfunkel.

Seven Hearts One Soul
2016
Recorded and produced in the legendary Principal Studios (Die Toten Hosen, In Extremo, Unheilig, H-Blockx, etc.), the Paddyhats have set the bar high for their new album “Seven Hearts, One Soul”.
“Seven Hearts, One Soul” is not a typical Irish folk punk record. Of course, there are driving beats, nimble violin, dirty electric guitar, but both the genre mix and their very own musical language break with the traditions.
