The Spurts are a band brought together from the mutual dislike of modern music and the monotony of the rock and roll scene. They joined in march 2007 in attempts to liven up the local music scene and bring back some of the energy of the early punk era. With countless gigs and house shows under they're belts they are branching out to grab more fans by the throat with there on and off stage antics. With live a show that would keep even the harshest of critics captivated The Spurts intend to pick up where the others left off so long ago. Look for them to come to your town soon.
