Swiss Celtic folk ‘n’ roll band The Green Goblins to release debut album in October

A guitar, a violin, a bagpipe – that’s how the story of THE GREEN GOBLINS began in 2017.  As a street music band in the Switzerland–Germany–France border region, they quickly made a name for themselves with their unique blend of traditional Irish folk, infectious energy and a musical style all of their own.

The streets gave way to the stages: With their explosive live shows, powerful melodies and boundless enthusiasm, THE GREEN GOBLINS conquered pubs, festivals, medieval markets and concert halls far beyond their home region. In the process, they developed their own style – a blend of Irish tradition, modern rock elements and epic songs, which they themselves describe as ‘Celtic Folk ’n’ Roll’.

Over time, the band’s sound evolved: electric violin meets guitar, drums and bass. This gave rise to the unmistakable sound of The Green Goblins – raw, energetic and boundless. Their debut EP ‘Arandore’ was followed by further singles and music videos, including ‘Roll On’, and the band continued to develop their sound.

Today, The Green Goblins are among the most exciting exponents of modern Celtic Folk ’n’ Roll and thrill their audiences with up to 50 concerts a year in Switzerland, Germany and Alsace.

And now THE GREEN GOBLINS are embarking on their next big chapter: their self-titled debut album, “The Green Goblins”, is due for release on 2 October 2026 via Metalville. With new songs, an unmistakable sound and the energy of a band ready to tear the place apart, THE GREEN GOBLINS are gearing up to conquer the world’s stages.
