The Whiskey Shivers is a Celtic punk rock band from Barrie Ontario in Canada. Incorporating various instruments like the mandolin, banjo, bodhron and bouzouki with hardcore punk rock has become the bands anthem sound. The band was formed by brothers Lance Holdforth (strings) and Mat Storring (drums) in 2008. After a long song-writing period, Brian Chantler (Bass) and Shawn McCaig (vocals) joined the band adding the dynamic of pounding bass and growly vocals to the line up. The Whiskey Shivers noted bands: Dropkick Murphys, Flogging Molly, Street Dogs, Pennywise, NOFX, Black Flag, Strung Out,and others as their collective musical inspiration.
