Boys from the County Hell (BftCH) are determined to keep the memory of Shane MacGowan and the music of The Pogues alive and kicking.
Based in Singapore, BftCH have quickly established themselves as the quintessential tribute to legendary folk-punk band, The Pogues. Formed by a group of passionate musicians who share a love of The Pogues gritty, poetic and raucous spirit, BFTCH dedicate themselves to giving an authentic Pogues experience to fans and newcomers alike.
At the heart of BftCH is the commitment to replicating the raw energy, intricate musicianship, and chaotic delivery that The Pogues are renowned for. In order to achieve this authentic sound, the 8-piece band (including banjos, accordions, whistles) is expanded to include female guest vocalists and a brass section. To our knowledge, no tribute act in the world is more dedicated to replicating the legendary Pogues sound.
