Formed in Totnes in 2004 from ex- Dartington graduates. Mixing elements of Punk, Pop, Surf, Eastern European Folk tunes and Ska with three piece vocal harmonies and garage band sensibilities, Fatlab write and perform songs of beauty and nonsense.
Fatlab live shows are chaotic events not to be missed, featuring dinosaur raffles, onstage fights and projections of giant insects getting it on down....
Eleven tracks from our debut album "Things That Make Me Happy" are now available on itunes, click here to buy it
