"It’s a toe-tapping, punching the air, honey of an album."

"This debut album features punk-pop (“Duke of the Green”, “Up in the Sky”), British style folk punk (“The Shores of Maine”), American folk (“Weather Heart”, “Old Dirt Road”), jigs and reels (“The Toledo Tapper”, “Laurel's Reels”), and Celtic punk (”Holes in Our Hearts”, “Tracy Boys Fight the World”). In other words, an eclectic and attractive album."

"Old Dirt Road, the first album, nothing is lacking, from production to performance. LEXINGTON FIELD offers an album of folk-punk without much personality of course (it will probably come on the next achievement), but with a real desire to do battle and to honor this style that deserves it." ***Translated from French***

With their first full length CD, Old Dirt Road, Celtic Punk group Lexington Field is throwing their hat in the ring with Flogging Molly and Dropkick Murphys. Although they don't tend to stand out from the established Folk Punk crowd, they certainly step in the door with some tricks up their sleeve.

Again and again I find myself in the use of various air tools (air guitar and air drums) to the energy that blows into my ear, reduce. What else should I write? The board is great, strong buy recommendation. ***Translated from German***

San Diego natives, Lexington Field, mix Celtic rhythm, traditional violin, good old American electric guitar, and blend it with a healthy dose of punk to create a fun and eclectic original album.

"A very strong debut and very well produced – big rock with a punk energy and loads of fiddles that merge the rock with Celtic, Americana and country."
