Swingin' Utters

Swingin' Utters is an American punk rock band that formed in the late 1980s. Having begun in Santa Cruz, California, the band moved to San Francisco where they are now based. They have been signed to Fat Wreck Chords since 1996. As well as being classed as a "punk revival" band (reminiscent of British 1970s bands such as Stiff Little Fingers, The Damned, Sham 69 and Eddie & The Hot Rods), Swingin' Utters have increasingly shown themselves to be influenced by Irish folk, particularly The Pogues.

The JB Conspiracy

Formerly known as Duff Muffin, The JB Conspiracy formed late in 1999 in Guildford, Surrey. The majority of members attended school at St. Peter's C.C. School, playing their first gig to 20 students and teachers for charity and later in the year performing as the Graduation act with now unheard songs such as Tropical Fish and Mr. Mischief. They picked up some instruments, learnt to play them, and fused influences from some of their favourite bands (Less Than Jake, Specials, Catch 22, RX Bandits) with their own style and after a few line up changes became the band they are today.
