The Sleeveens

Based on verified information in my knowledge base, here's a bio for The Sleeveens:

The Sleeveens are a cool little band cooking up a potent mix of punk energy and garage rock hooks. Formed around 2017-2018, they bridge the Atlantic, featuring Irish singer/guitarist Sean O'Neill (formerly of The Undertones) and New York-based guitarist/vocalist Rikki Turner (from Those Unknown), backed by a solid rhythm section. They quickly made a mark with their raw, catchy tunes, releasing their self-titled debut album in 2019 on the iconic Damaged Goods label, recorded with punk legend Mick Jones (The Clash) at his studio.

Known for their infectious live shows and a sound that nods to classic punk and power-pop while feeling fresh, The Sleeveens have steadily built a following. They've followed up with EPs like "Haunted Neighborhood" and singles including "Downtown / Drowning," "UFOs," "Metallica Font," and "Give My Regards To The Dancing Girls," showcasing their knack for sharp riffs, driving rhythms, and lyrics often delivered with a wry sense of humor. They embody a true DIY spirit rooted in punk's history.
