The Amnesiacs

Living and breathing and being in the right now.

About Me

The Amnesiacs are a five-piece ska band. Their music is a contemporary rendition of ska fusing it with rap/indie and funk. Making their music a unqiue blend of styles and influences. They are one of the most exciting bands in England to see live, with boundless energy and enthusiasm.Also, their propensity to freestyle during the set makes their live performances vibrant and unpredictable. They have already toured nationwide and released a debut E.P in 2006. They are currently in the studio working on a full album.'Sounds like a young verson of us' Neville staples (ex The Specials)
