Born out of the sprawling suburban jungle of North London’ wine bars, tower blocks, well manicured lawns and piss stained streets, The Nu Ska band Rudeboy and Rascal have evolved and emerged into a social scene, riddled with recession, protest, monkey men, fat cat pay-outs and a mass populist desperately seeking chemically fuelled fun times; to distract them from the day to day grind of their twenty first century strife.
Rudeboy and Rascal' musical styling, twists and blends Dance music, Ska and Reggae, whilst seamlessly merging haunting Pulp Fiction style guitars into the mix. Rudeboy and Rascal then serve it all up, with a large healthy dollop of witty yet narcissistic Punk Rock style and attitude.
Fronted by the talents of Tommy “Tuff “Jones and Sammy “Buzz “Wilson, Rudeboy & Rascal have joined forces to produce their very own brand of Ska Rockabilia. Rudeboy & Rascal started working on their first stomping track “Clubbed” back in 2007 after a chance meeting in a North London ale house and have never looked twice, I mean back - Step back!!! The Nu Ska revolution has arrived.
Sammy “Buzz “Wilson with his love for all things Reggae brings style, a sweet tone and crowd pleasing Toast & Chatter to the party, whilst Dance floor guru Tommy Tuff, who could be found back in the day supporting such artists as Jimmy Cliff and Bobby Womack whilst churning out massive number 1 Dance hits, under the name “Staxxx – brings lyrical dynamite, energy and a sneer to the proceedings.
After touring Japan as a four piece vocal combo, Rudeboy and Rascal returned to their studio hide-out London N8 to continue writing prolifically for their debut album release “Walk the Walk”; when from his sick bed Tommy “Tuff “Jones had a revelation – We got to put the band back together!!!!!
So recruiting from a most motley crew of magicians, art schools drop outs, reggae heads, blaggers and thieves, Rudeboy and Rascal are now set to take their uplifting, energetic, high intensity live show to the masses. With Tom Smokin Jones Junior on bass, Matty small axe Kivanchi on lead guitar, keyboard wizard Neil too cool Henry, Stevie Kingpin Roots on rhythm guitar & vox and da one drop being provided by the big man himself Robbie stixx Schultzberg; you are sure to be, amazed, bewildered and above all one hopes, entertained by the Ska Rock antics of North London’ finest Rudeboy & Rascal.
Now that’s the crew and that’s the crack, so hold on tight and watch your back for the Nu Ska revolution demands to be heard and then takes the piss out of you for doing so. Immensely cheeky and catchier than a bus load of Heinz baked beans ads, miss them at your peril. I urge you to lock up your daughters, for the “Lords of Misadventure” are coming to your town.
