Formed at a Velvet Revolver gig in London in 2005 (the name gave birth to the band), the Shovel recorded their first demo – the Wake Up Or Die EP – which was play-listed and saw the band interviewed on UK’s Total Rock Radio. Fuckshovel have gigged throughout the UK - from London gigs at venues such as the Underworld and the Borderline and motorway trips to such exotic locations as Guisborough, Trefforest and Burnley!
