Folk-punk firebrands The Dreadnoughts are back with Polka Pit, an album that blends old-world chaos with punk energy. Now based in New York but originally from Vancouver, the band has built a global following by fusing sea shanties, tarantellas, polkas, and street punk into something uniquely their own.

Polka Pit is a tribute to the magic of punk rock and the power of traditional polka,” says frontman Smyth. Listen to the first new single called Polka Pit:

Formed in 2006, The Dreadnoughts have played in over 30 countries and released standout records like Polka’s Not Dead, Into the North, and Foreign Skies. With this new release, they continue their mission of making tradition sound like rebellion.
