About The Pogues

The band's core studio albums, Red Roses for Me (1984), Rum Sodomy & the Lash (1985) and If I Should Fall from Grace with God (1988), established their reputation through the 1980s. Their best-known song, "Fairytale of New York" (1987), a duet between MacGowan and Kirsty MacColl, reached number two on the UK Singles Chart and has remained a perennial seasonal favorite.

Substance issues led to MacGowan's removal from the band in 1991; the Pogues disbanded in 1996, reunited in 2001, and dissolved again following guitarist Philip Chevron's death in 2014. Surviving founding members Spider Stacy, Jem Finer and James Fearnley reformed to tour again in 2024, continuing the band's legacy following MacGowan's death.
