Coxey’s Army — Electronic Press Kit (EPK)
Artist Bio
Coxey’s Army is more than a band—it’s a movement for the underdog. Hailing from Central Ohio, they merge the defiant spirit of punk rock with the storytelling of folk and the raw energy of Celtic tradition. Their songs tell tales of hard work, struggle, and resilience, echoing the voices of those often unheard. Drawing influence from bands like Street Dogs, early Dropkick Murphys, and Cock Sparrer, their sound is both a battle cry and a celebration of perseverance.
In a short time, Coxey’s Army has built serious momentum, sharing the stage with punk heavyweights such as Sloppy Seconds, Escape From The Zoo, The Dreadnaughts, The Casualties, Antagonizers ATL, and The Rumjacks. The band has been featured on PromoWest’s Discover Weekly, named a Top Central Ohio Band to Watch (2023) by TunedUp, and receives regular airplay on WTJN Troy.
Known for their high-energy performances and authentic connection with the crowd, Coxey’s Army has become a trusted support act when national tours roll through Columbus and Dayton. Their seasoned live presence and commanding stage energy consistently elevate lineups, making them a reliable choice for promoters and venues looking to ignite a room from the first chord.
