Event information
Formed in 2006, this is London’s most sensational Rhythm’n’Blues-Punk party band, and one that truly represents London, being a mongrel mix of Caribbean, Japan, France and Spain. Originally influenced by the wildest bands of the 50’s and 60’s (think Sonics, Screaming Lord Sutch, Wailers, Sam the Sham), they have developed their own style of high energy sausage fuelled rock and roll, specifically designed to get you dancing like a madman . Well reknowned for their smoking hot live shows that punch you in the chops and leave you flat on your rumps, they have been spreading the bacon fat all around the world for nearly 20 years., touring Europe many times, Australia, the USA, China, Turkey, the Middle East, Brazil and they even performed on some small South Pacific islands! Whether on stage or on record this is one of the most exciting band in rock’n’roll right now – they are guys who know what it takes to make you move.
You might have seen them starring on BBC’s TV series “UK’S BEST PART-TIME BAND”, they also have 2 songs in the soundtrack of the Hollywood movie “Death Race 2050” (remake of Death Race 2000) produced by the legendary Roger Corman!
The guitar riffs are infectious, the vocals are the insane rantings of a man haunted by the ghost of Screamin’ Jay Hawkins, and the drums and bass chug along relentlessly like a train with no brakes. Members of the Cumberland Three have a solid pedigree, as they previously played in the Parkinsons, Chinese Lungs, the Nips,
UK Subs, Barrence Whitfield and the Savages, etc...
