We are two boys from Limerick City.We ring people on the phone and when they answer the phone we do jokes to them. We record it and then we put it on the internet for people to listen to. We have recently started to do pop songs aswell. When we do a song, we write, perform, record and produce the song on our own, without any help from people who aren't me or him (The Rubberbandits).
RUBBER BANDITS
RUBBERBANDITS Straddling the comedy and music worlds like a tracksuit wearing colossus, Limerick’s Rubberbandits have manipulated and bullied their way to a level far beyond either their talent or intellect. Songs like “Bag of Glue”, “Too Many Gee” and “Up Da Ra” have made them the 12th most popular MySpace page in the whole of Ireland, beaten only by traditional Irish bands who aren’t even from here.
Their live show is basically a Prime Time special on the Limerick gangs, sniffing glue as an aphrodisiac when encountering larger ladies, horses…the list goes on. Blindboy Boat Club and Mr. Chrome will present a perspective on life that only two roadside fruit sellers who got a start selling mix tapes through local Limerick drug dealers can provide.
With prank phone calls, songs and riotous live shows Rubberbandits have emerged as the country’s surrealists beyond compare. Comedic genius or verbal diarrhoea. Decide for yourselves. A slot after diplo at Electric Picnic together with sold out dates all over the country including the Bulmers Comedy Festival plus regular slots on Today Fm have given them ego but just the right amount. type “willie O’dea” into you tube to see the latest missive from the mean streets.
