The Scratch are an Irish band from Dublin who aren’t afraid to blend worlds that usually stay apart. They combine traditional Irish melodies with the weight and drive of heavy metal—a combination that somehow works brilliantly. The current lineup features Conor "Dock" Dockery (guitar, backing vocals), Gary "Snakeskin" Regan (guitar, backing vocals), Cathal McKenna (bass, backing vocals), and Daniel "Lango" Lang (cajón, percussion, lead vocals), each bringing their own flair to this energetic folk-metal mix.
Former guitarist and vocalist Jordan O’Leary departed from the band in late 2024, marking the end of an era in The Scratch’s sound.
