One of Bristol's hottest club secrets, and championed by the likes of Mr. Scruff, The Scratch Perverts and DJ Derek, are the prodigious party boys and
girls, Scubaroots.
At its core, the group is a nine piece live funk, ska, drum and bass act that on occasion swells to include gospel choirs, record geek DJs, Latin percussion outfits and a ton of other party-kinds up for a party.
The band forged on the South West college circuit and now has an ardent following here in Bristol, and wherever they have gigged around the country.
Pumping out quality new material at a alarming rate, the band have already put out one EP, launched from it, put on too many gigs to mention and have a second album in the works (out Summer 2008).
Expect high energy, disciplined and soulful music that nods to the best kinds breakbeat, funk, reggae and roots influences you can imagine.
Taste beyond their years this is killer stuff. Crowds forming. Let the word spread.
