Guns of Brighton

“Guns of Brighton” are a traditional Punk firm out of Boston, MA. Their songs channel the urgency of the Clash and Social Distortion, along with the song craft and vocal harmonies of Green Day and Dag Nasty.
There is only one question Markie D., Ant Aubrey, and Lee Holland have for you. That is; “Do you wanna hear the sound of ‘Guns’?” Well, if your answer’s affirmative then follow our “Call to Arms!” The debut album “A Selfish Call to Arms” drops in April, 2014!
Playing "Porchfest" and other Boston area events / shows throughout the Spring of 2014!
