HOJO!

About Me



Knucklebone Oscar is Scandinavia`s best kept show secret. Half human, half ape and hailing from Helsinki Finland, Oscar`s music is best described as electrifying ADD-blues. With a healthy dose of garage rock flavour & punk energy, Knucklebone Oscar`s music and wild performing style evoke images of Chuck Berry on speed or maybe Little Richard`s half ape little brother on guitar. Oscar and his quartet are determined to bring you the most exhausting kick-ass live show of your life with hard grinding guitar pyrotechnics, hyper-active moves, trash voodoo mystique, masked marvels, jungle specialities, axes, wailing megaphones and freaks of nature. It`s a truck load of bad Ju-Ju and a mojo supercharge!
