    Bio:

    After recording and releasing their 4th studio album "The High Road", THE MUDMEN have been getting quite a lot of attention with a slight new direction in sound. The Campbell Brothers have gone right into their Scottish/Irish Celtic roots and dug up an amazing album! With each song getting the crowd dancing, singing along and drinking their faces off, "The High Road" is a blast of Celtic energy that no one can resist!
    The band are best known for their singles "5 O'Clock", "Saturday", and "Drink and Fight" as well as their covers of Spirit Of The West's "Home For A Rest" and AC/DC's "It's A Long Way To The Top (If You Want To Rock 'N Roll". In addition, the band's music has been featured in popular culture - their single "Lost", from Defending the Kingdom, was featured in a promotional video for the NBC television show The Black Donnellys, and their single "Animal" was featured in the soundtracks of the video games Burnout 3: Takedown and MX vs. ATV Unleashed. In 2008 Robby & Sandy Campbell were called in to help out in CBC's Hockey Night in Canada Anthem Challenge, in which they played the Bagpipes on Colin Obersts "Canadian Gold", the winning anthem.

    The band's name comes from the Campbell Brothers' occupation prior to forming the band:they were mixing mortar and carrying bricks for bricklayers.
