Dropkick Murphys’ new CD Going Out In Style is out today via their own Born & Bred Records (ILG). In connection with the CD release, the band’s video for the title track, “Going Out In Style,” is now exclusively available at RollingStone.com.
In the clip–directed by Mark Higgins–a funeral parlor scene quickly becomes a raucous celebration of life. Dropkick Murphys are joined by friends, family and special guests including NHL Hall of Famer Bobby Orr (Boston Bruins alumni), fellow musicians Fat Mike (NOFX) and Chris Cheney (The Living End), along with a host of Boston-based celebrities: Micky Ward (boxing champion; The Fighter), Lenny Clarke (Rescue Me actor & comedian), Shawn Thornton (Boston Bruins), Milan Lucic (Boston Bruins), Kevin Youkilis (Boston Red Sox) and Heidi Watney (NESN reporter).
In celebration of our new album release we have teamed up with Converse to design our own exclusive DKM All Star Chuck Taylor. Check out a sneak preview of an interview we did at the Converse Store on Newbury Street in Boston. More details coming when the shoe is available on March 14th!
