Sixtyseconds Posted April 27, 2020 Report Share Posted April 27, 2020 I'll have a crack at this. This type of folk Punk is influenced by Gods West Country here in blighty. Its also sort of mixed with other influences like Celtic folk. Cider and punk is not uncommon elsewhere. Chaos UK were Wurzels fans. Influenced by them. Played as a Punk Wurzels tribute band. They influenced bands and scenes world wide. The Surfin Turnips also local were Wurzels fans. The Dreadnoughts are influenced by the Surfin Turnips folk punk. They covered the Surfin Turnips Turbo Island. And supported them at the Exchange couple of years back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUTOR Posted April 27, 2020 Report Share Posted April 27, 2020 I went to see this band at the exchange a few years ago and somehow ended up smashing down the traditional in the Cider pub next door with them after the gig before the singer gave me and my mate 20 quid to get home cause we were broke. Nice people Edit: it is quite a strange connection to the West Country they’ve got, I remember them being fascinated to be talking to ‘real Bristolians’ haha. Never really worked it out. Would love to hear them played at Ashton gate and I’m sure they’d be absolutely chuffed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not directly, but I feel sadly the mentioning of jesus christ is enough for a song not to be selected as bristol citys entry song. Not in anyway saying that I wouldn't be for the song, just cant see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve had a reply from The Dreadnoughts on Twitter after I asked them why they wrote a song about Bristol when they are from Vancouver @Vincent Vega @elhombrecito @Slacker - they said “the cider and the people have always drawn us to the place” - superb, love em even more now!

Portred Posted February 24, 2021 Report Share Posted February 24, 2021 Listened to the dreadnoughts song in work twice today, just got home and played it again, as a proud Bristolian it sent shivers up me spine. Absolutely fantastic song. I know songs on here very rarely reach the stands but I would love to hear the chorus sang by us at an away game. Thanks for sharing A new dreadnoughts fan !!
