Kid Slug

New 7" Coming Soon!

About Me

Kid Slug are the musical pioneers of the new concoction they brand; "Rhythm & Punk" - mixing classic sounds reminiscent of Dr. Feelgood, Elvis Presley, Bo Diddley, and such other greats, with a more recent hard 'n fast US punk/hardcore sound. Their versatility means they will often switch from a smooth, hip-shaking dance number, one minute, into a blisteringly fast assualt-on-the-senses the very next!
Kid Slug is a band like no other - Buckle up!

We have a new single on the way, more info coming soon!
