Absolute fun last night filming the video promo for the "Ring The Bells" single on Jump Up Records. 

Thanks to the superb stand up comedian legend and Co creator of Viz! mag Simon Donald for playing the perfect Northern Committee secretary and Compere, to all at Easington Lane WMC for letting us run riot and to the lads in The Skapones who got stuck right into it and had a great laugh. Big Thanks to the ladies Bonnie, Emma and Lucinda for hamming it up and Graham for a superb hangdog expression and last but not least the good sport that is Richard Hymas for coming along and getting dragged about 

Video soon come!

Christmas tunes are like buses- you're waiting for one when two turn up together!

We have been involved with the internet sensation that is SAL POLICHETTI! 

Sal was the  front man of Sonseed who's mega tune "Jesus Is A Friend Of Mine" became  a huge internet hit with the video to the song hitting over 13 Million views! See it below- 

Sal played a full set on bass for us when we played the final gig in Brooklyn, New York on our USA Tour in 2019 and he was superb, he's such a top guy. This new track released via our Bandcamp page and across all good download sources  is called "Jesus Is A Friend Of Mine (Part Two)" and sees him revisit the original with us backing him, it's his release and he's rocking it out!

It's out Friday 17th December 2021 and you can DOWNLOAD IT NOW!  video promo to follow -

Massive thanks to all of you who have supported our Xmas single "RING THE BELLS"!

Released on top USA label Jump Up Records, It reached No.4 in the UK reggae charts last week- so thank you!

You can buy the luscious red and green 7" vinyl HERE at our store or you can still download now from all good download sources and Spotify or if you buy the vinyl you get the download free anyway!

THANKS CHAPS XXXXXX

The brand new original Christmas tune is on its way! We are chuffed to be released on top USA ska label Jump Up Records on 7"old skool Vinyl with our mates the Scotch Bonnets on the other side 

"Ring The Bells". Written by Andy Wears and additional work by Bodsa Brown is full of the festive cheer. 

Release date announced tomorrow.

People have had an awful two years so we were purposefully festive with the new Christmas single. 

Any radio stations wanting a bit of light in the gloom get in touch and we will send it over for airplay -Thanks and stay tuned!

Well, we've had it hard these past eight weeks that's for sure.

For the first time in our existence, we have had to cancel gigs from Derby to Kirkcaldy and our annual trip to The Big One event in Dorset took a  weird turn when band members took ill and the show still went ahead as a special aftershow covers set with guest musicians.

It's been crazy. Willo and Dave were hit by three weeks of the "Supercold" that's hitting the UK, then we played the double gig at Bridlington and thought we were back on track only for the unlucky Willo, Keyboard Steve and Browny on sax to be smacked with the dreaded Covid-19.  Its taking a time but all three are now slowly recovering so we hope to be back live on December 3rd. I'm sure you wish the lads well on their recovery paths,

We hope to see you all at a gig soon.

Thanks for all your messages of support on social media.

Our second album "Northern Gods" is well underway and we can announce the running order of the new release! It will be available on 12" vinyl, CD, Cassette, download and lots of other little formats.
