The Tossers
All Music Guide
Forming on Chicagos South Side in the early 90s, predating popular Irish punk bands the Dropkick Murphys and Flogging Molly, the Tossers blend Celtic rock, punk, pub singalongs, and raditional folk. Known for their love of beer, the band consists of Mike Pawula (guitar), T. Duggins (vocals, mandolin), Aaron Duggins (tin whistle), Dan Shaw (bass), Bones (drums), Becca (violin), and Clayton Hansen (banjo). The seven-piece released four albums -- Well Never Be Sober Again (1996), Long Dim Road (2000), Communication & Conviction: Last Seven Years (2001), and Purgatory (2003) -- before signing to the large indie Victory Records, which put out The Valley of the Shadow of Death in October 2005. The Tossers have helped make a name for themselves by opening for Shane MacGowan, Stiff Little Fingers, Dropkick Murphys, and Murphys Law.
