About Me

MyGen Profile Generator
WE DO KUNG FU! are a BRAND SPANKING NEW! Pop / Electro / Powerpop act, kicking out of deepest, darkest Herefordshire... the land of psychedelic scrumpy, dodgy car auctions and over-priced beef...
The band have been together since early March 2008, and are 22 years old or younger, having risen like a crazy-eyed phoenix from the ashes of several other sadly now defunct Herefordshire groups...
Now on the path to becoming established for themselves, members of WE DO KUNG FU! have previously been featured in NME (by New Music Editor, James Jam), played on BBC Radio 1 (by Huw Stephens), toured nationally at a plethora of venues, and played alongside many top acts, including Mercury Music Prize 2007 nominees New Young Pony Club, punk legends The Damned, Foals, (spunge), Kid Carpet, Enter Shikari and Liars, to name but a few along the way…
WE DO KUNG FU! aim to write quirky 3 minute pop songs, and are influenced by a wide range of pop, punk and electro artists - none of which they can all agree on that they like. The band are currently playing as many live shows as possible in order to raise their profile, and are actively seeking management!

Because we’re so new, we haven’t had time to get any reviews for ourselves as yet, but these are just some of the things that people have said about our previous bands!
NME – “… a slice of clattery, dancey British punk rock, fully-equipped with epic stage invasions and proper pop choruses!…”
James Jam (NME New Music Editor) – “…a damn good band, sound like they’ve just discovered punk rock and simply enjoy making a bloody good racket!…”
Andrew Marston (presenter, BBC Hereford and Worcester “The Friday Session: Introducing”) – “… like nobody else… youthful manic energy… raw, raucous and all things rebellious!…”
Andy O’Hare (BBC Hereford and Worcester gig reviewer) – “… explosive Pistols-like energy… cut down but equally anarchic… excuse brand loyalty, but this lot write some of the best songs going…thrashtastic catchy numbers!…”
Captain Sensible (The Damned) – “...great! … a band well on the way up… top tune…!”
Eddie Argos (Art Brut) – “Top Of The Pops!”
Angus (Liars) - "... nice one, guys!…”
Wreckless Eric – “… I really like your tunes!…”
Dominic Masters (The Others) – “I played the damn demo… and it’s brilliant!…”
