BIOGRAPHY

Emerging from a beer-infused moment post an FC St. Gallen match, these individuals found their trajectory within the realm of Irish Punk Rock. Hailing from Switzerland, their burgeoning success urged them to transcend national boundaries, leading them to perform triumphantly in foreign lands such as Germany, Austria, Czech Republic, Holland, and Italy. The pinnacle arrived with a tour alongside Fiddlers Green, igniting a new chapter of opportunities, encompassing renowned venues and grand festivals.

Amidst an extensive repertoire of nearly 400 performances, prestigious festivals like St. Gallen Open Air, Open Flair, and Pol and Rock Festival embellish their portfolio. Their concoction of Irish folk harmonies and unadulterated punk rock has birthed a musical epoch that captivates all.

What truly distinguishes the Saint City Orchestra extends beyond their compositions—it’s their dynamic stage presence, inciting an ecstatic revelry at each show. The synergy of unfiltered ardor and unbridled vivacity transforms their live spectacles into indelible memories.

Having released two albums, an EP, and ten singles, their achievements are palpable. Anticipate more, as 2022 saw a collaboration with Principal Studios and producer extraordinaire Jörg Umbreit, setting the stage for new singles in 2023. The Saint City Orchestra rides the fast lane, ceaselessly primed for novel endeavors. This ensemble embodies an evolving saga of musical prowess and perpetual readiness.
