Although their name may be irreverent, their music certainly is not. The heart of their distinct sound is derived through the melding of traditional Irish and Punk Rock roots. Combining traditional instrumentation of mandolin, fiddle, tin whistle and banjo with amphetamine-fueled guitar, bass and drums, the Tossers play with a furious edge that teeters between rage and raucousness. With over 15 years of the music grind behind them, the Tossers are a staple in the Celtic Punk and Folk scenes.

Currently the band has six full-length albums, the newest of which is "On A Fine Spring Evening" their third release on Victory Records. While their live shows are fueled with a little bit of blood and sweat and a whole lot of whiskey and beer, their albums are dedicated to musical elegance and provocation. Possessing the ability to masterfully employ stark tempo changes from the brink of the insane to the solemness of an Irish ballad, the Tossers are an act that does not disappoint in print or in person.
