Hello, here’s a bit of info about who we are but you’ll find out more by checking out our songs, watching our videos or sending us a message and saying hi!
We’re loose caboose
We’ve been mates for ages but only got together as a band in July 06 and since then we’ve done loads!
We’ve played with plenty of awesome bands like Six Nation State, toured with The Holloways, as well as playing with ska legends like Bad Manners and [spunge] among others (although we’re not even a Ska band).
The first couple of months was a busy regime of touring and writing which means we’ve got two UK tours under our belts and a couple of albums worth of song demos recorded which we’re going to strip down into one album of the best tunes. Before that we’ve got a debut single to release and loads of touring to be done…We can’t wait!!
Subscribe to our blog above and we’ll keep you up to date with what we’re doing, where we’re going and who we’re meeting on the way.
Hope your enjoying the songs and see you at a gig some time soon!
Love Love Love
