Biography

The UK’s most formidable Ska Punk band to emerge in recent years Buster Shuffle have had a colossal 2019 and even bigger start to 2020. Every band worth their salt on the thriving Punk Rock Scene also took them on the road – Flogging Molly, Me First And The Gimmie Gimmies, The Mad Caddies, Less Than Jake, Donots and most recently at the start of 2020, The Interrupters on their huge UK tour – and these likely East London lads have certainly left their mark. And it doesn’t stop with just the UK and Europe as the boys recently played the prestigious Punk Rock Bowling festival in Las Vegas and subsequently joined The Mighty Mighty Bosstones on the American leg of their tour. Buster Shuffle burst onto the scene 10 years ago with the sole purpose of entertaining and bringing their raucous tunes to beer wielding audiences, seamlessly straddling the ska, punk and rock and roll genres. With song writing craftsmanship at the core, tunes about drunken arguments, crafty cats, anti-social night buses, dirty older women and messy divorces emerged in their ambitious debut album Our Night Out, grabbing the attention of the music press UNCUT magazine giving the boys 4/5 stars plus raving reviews from The Guardian and The Mirror. From there, Ska figureheads Madness have had them play at their House of Fun Weekender two consecutive years running, plus played regularly with rockney duo Chas and Dave, who became firm friends and supporters of the band.
