Don't You Try (feat. Toots)

This mischievous rabble from London have been causing mischief since school, spreading their contagious horn driven ska anthems across the UK, mainland Europe and beyond.

On 24th November 2017 the band released their new LP 'Harry J Business', recorded at Harry J Studios in Kingston, Jamaica with double Grammy award winning producer Stephen Stewart. Extensive tours of the UK and Europe are planned plus a string of festival performances to promote the record. The official video for the debut single from the LP "Don't You Try" is out now, featuring reggae legend Toots Hibbert of Toots & The Maytals which has gained airplay across BBC Radio 2, BBC Radio 6 Music & BBC Radio 1xtra.
