The Architects Go Green in Detroit with Flogging Molly

Tracy Heck
On Saturday, March 6, American Celtic punk band Flogging Molly will bring their 6th Annual Green 17 tour to the Fillmore Theatre in Detroit along with openers Frank Turner and The Architects.

The tour is a lead up to the popular Irish drinking holiday St. Patrick's Day.

After spending their entire Summer on the Vans Warped Tour, The Architects are joining the Green 17 tour to promote their fourth album The Hard Way.

The Architects are a American rock band from Kansas City, Missouri featuring the Phillips brothers: Brandon, Zach and Adam along with their best friend Keenan Nichols.

With production by Aaron Conner (Cher, 2Pac, Notorious B.I.G.), The Hard Way is drawn from the deep lyrical pools of songsmiths like Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and Tom Petty.

"We are still our father's sons with respect to our heroes," says singer/songwriter and eldest brother Brandon describing the evolution of The Architects' sound and the creation of The Hard Way.
