   About Coolie Ranx
1/25 Pilfers show at the Knitting Factory in NYC

After almost a decade of singing in the Toasters and fronting his band the Pilfers, Coolie Ranx is back with a new music endeavor. Coolie is now branching out on his own, as a solo performer. Born in England, Coolie came to the United States as a child and was raised in Brooklyn, New York. He began his career in the late 80s, and recorded four dancehall tracks in 1988. This caught the attention of the Toasters, a well known ska band in from New York City. Soon after he ended up joining the Toasters. While with them, they recorded two albums Dub 56 and Hard Band for Dead. Dub 56, which completely went out of print, featured two of his own songs "Legal Shot" and "Goody Goody". After four years with the Toasters, Coolie felt the desire to branch out and form a band of his own. Along with Vinny Nobile of Bim Skala Bim fame, they formed Pilfers, a band which pushed the envelop of ska/reggae/punk music. Their flavor dubbed as "raggacore" was well received, where they toured all around the U.S. and Europe. Selling over 10,000 copies of their self-titled CD on their own led them to a recording contract with Mojo Records. With Mojo, they recorded Chawalaleng. In mid-2001, differences in the band led them to split.

Recently, Coolie has worked with bands such as More Than Me, Sonic Boom Six, and Baby Love & the Van Dangos. Since November 2005, Pilfers have gotten together to play a few shows along the East Coast. In other news, Coolie is in RockStar Games' Grand Theft Auto 4. He plays Little Jacob, a Jamaican arms dealer.
