With a sound that harks back to the exhilarating proto-punk of the MC5 crossed with an undeniably working-class London vocal delivery in the vein of Billy Bragg – Chubby and the Gang burst on the scene with the suitably named fast paced thrash of ‘Speed Kills’ released via the modern rock tastemakers Partisan Records.

All Along the Uxbridge Road is the perfect distillation of the white knuckle wild-ride rock delivered on the band’s debut – buoyed by emphatic claps, booming drums and rock ‘n’ roll guitar riffs.

Chubby and the Gang will play Dublin’s Workman’s club 18 December, 2021. Tickets from €14.00 go on sale this Friday, 16 April at 10AM on Ticketmaster.ie & Tickets.ie
