Boiled In Lead – Slipping into Darkness Halloween 2026
Last call to experience this legendary band!
Boiled In Lead make their Crooners debut in the Dunsmore room. Their new studio album “King of the Dogwoods” seamlessly mixes genres from heavy noise to accapella vocals, world music from Ireland to Serbia, and a strong dose of the unexpected. “The remarkable thing is that BiL can come out so full of energy and desire after more than 40 years together. A real force to be reckoned with, showing everyone how it should be done.” – Chris Nickson, author and music journalist.
Todd Menton: Vocals, Guitar, Mandolin, Bodhrán, Whistle
Drew Miller: Bass, Guitar
Morris Engel: Drum Kit
Boiled in Lead’s musical recipe features guitar, bass, violin & drums that play country music from many countries with power and emotion. They are the longest-running Celtic punk band in America, and an important part of the foundation of what became Minnesota punk rock; their star is still on the wall at legendary nightclub First Avenue, dating back to their first 7th Street Entry show in 1983. Enthusiastic, powerful, technically brilliant, playing a wealth of instruments with extreme dynamics, the band routinely demolishes genres with its highly-identifiable sound.
