Scum Of Toytown
Ska-punksters and arch exponents of tuneful 90s agit-pop to a wider world, Scum of Toytown are a response to the boredom and disaffection of London overspill life in Stevenage, UK. Rooted in the North London punk scene of the 70s and 80s, the main members met and began playing together in the late 80s. Gravitating towards the lively free festival and squat scene, SOTT played numerous dates in the UK with bands like RDF, Back to the Planet, Citizen Fish, Senser, 25th of May, Blaggers ITA, Dub War, Bender, The Cowboy Killers and AOS3.

Dirty Larry
You can usually break down a Jersey ska band by the numbers, and Dirty Larry was no exception: nine years, seven bassists, eight horn players, two frontmen… and countless shows. Relying on the punk-infused energy of bands like Rx Bandits, Less Than Jake, and Catch22, the eight-piece, suburban horn band distinguished itself from local contemporaries, most notably with big city gigs at Philadelphia clubs. Dirty Larry played music they loved regardless of what the current trend was. They rocked in various incarnations from 1998 until their final hoorah in 2007.
