About Me

We started playing in the late 90's in a leaky warehouse using whatever equipment we could dumpster or steal and whoever we could lure in with a coupla beers. I think our only real goal was to get some beers by being obnoxious at punk and rockabilly shows since that was pretty much what we were doing before we were a band. We wanted to play traditional rythym and blues but this is what came out. We now have three records and two 7 inches and have played a lot of clubs, bars, car shows, squats, tatoo conventions, parties, VFW halls, and leaky ships in the US, Gemany, England, Spain, Italy (sorry guys), Switzerland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, France, Holland, Czech Republic, and Poland. We've got both US and European dates this summer, so we're probably playing somewhere near you, check back here for updates.
