Who are you, then?
Chiggy Chone

Where are you from?
Sheffield

Tell us a bit about yourselves:
We are a young, up-and-coming seven piece ska-punk band from Sheffield. We formed in 2004 from the ashes of various other bands, and began practicing in the attic of the Nottingham House pub in Broomhill, where we eventually played our first gig in January 2005.

We have been entertaining crowds throughout Sheffield since, and our energetic live performances have given us a loyal following. In June we recorded a demo CD. Our influences are drawn from bands such as Capdown, Madness, King Prawn, Less Than Jake and Ska-P to name but a few.

Who's in the band, and what do you play?
Deakins - vocals
Raife - guitar
Wilson - guitar
Andy - trumpet
Yifan - saxaphone
Armchair - bass
George - drums

How long have you been around?
Sonce October 2004

What's your best moment so far?
Getting kicked off stage at the DQ Late Bar for causing too many people to dance to our music.

Describe your music for us:
Our music is fast skacore with rap vocals and a kickass horn section.

Who are your influences?
Capdown, Less Than Jake, Ska-P, King Prawn, Voodoo Glow Skulls, Adequate 7, The Filaments, Leftover Crack, NOFX - any cool ska/punk music really.

And if you could cover one song, what would it be?
A ska/punk cover of Bohemian Rhapsody
