Crazy arm

From Plymouth, Crazy Arm is the versatile, hobocore lovechild that arose from two of the city's popular punk rock bands, No Comply (Jon Dailey and Simon Marsh) and The Once Over Twice (Darren Johns). Although the band has been together since May 2005 it wasn't until their respective bands split up in Feb/May 2006 that they became a more serious concern for all involved. And with the addition of fourth member, Dan Couling (Toxic Waste Brigade), Crazy Arm has developed a distinct and progressive style, shot through with a healthy dose of grass-roots radical politics.
