Sham 69

2009
32 years ago the Sex Pistols took the world by storm putting the world of punk rock on the front pages of the international press and Sham 69 released their debut ep "I Don't Wanna". 32 years of mohawks, of safety pins, of bondage pants, of cropped hair, of Dr.Marten boots. Taking the elitist, middle class punk sound and style, and taking it to the streets and to the roots level.

2007
The Sham 69 album, "Western Culture" is released on Bad Dog Records. With a line-up change bound to surprise many, they are sounding fresher than they have done for a long, long time. Their first real record for over ten years, proving that the band is back to stay!

In early 2007 the band parted ways with vocalist Jimmy Pursey. Enter Tim V, a true guts and glory singer who has brought some reality to the hearts of the kids on the streets. From the back streets of the East End of London. A genuine Cockney from the tower blocks who has brought back the guts to a band that pioneered the street punk movement. Following a hugely successful US tour showcasing the new line-up and material, it is safe to say Sham 69 is back!

2009 its Tim V. at the mic since and steady touring proofed the band to be as excellent than ever, reliable and true, blasting out all the hits with venegance !!!

Check out their latest album on Bad Dog Records ''Seriously Ultimate'' as well !
