The Cloverhearts are one of the fastest-rising bands in Celtic punk. Fronted by Australian singer-songwriter Sam Cooper, they’ve racked up millions of streams in just a few years, fusing upbeat, angst-driven rock with whimsical tales of love and loss — roaring bagpipe anthems and tin-whistle earworms that land somewhere between early Dropkick Murphys and Green Day.
They’ve shared stages with genre giants including Flogging Molly, The Mahones and Booze & Glory, and played major festivals across Europe, the UK and Japan — Rebellion, Punk Rock Holiday and Mighty Sounds among them. “Catchy melodies, tin-whistle ear-worms and energetic live performances,” as London Celtic Punks put it — resonating just as well with kickflipping street punks as with boozy Pogues fans. They roar into 2026 with a new line-up and a new album on the horizon.
