SHAM 69
With hits such as BORSTAL BREAKOUT and HEY LITTLE RICH BOY being performed in 76-77, Sham 69 went on to have other successes such as HURRY UP HARRY, ANGELS WITH DIRTY FACES and the anthem IF THE KIDS ARE UNITED. Neil Harris formed the band with Jimmy Pursey in 1975. Neil Harris along with the other original members Albie Slider, Johnny Good-for-nothing and Billy Bostik were performing live with hits such as Borstal Breakout and Hey Little Rich Boy prior to the bands line up change in late 1977.

Sham 69 has had many line-up changes, including Jimmy Pursey’s departure in 2006, replaced by now vocalist Tim V. The band currently features alongside Tim V and the bands longest serving drummer at 38 years behind the kit for Sham 69, Ian Whitewood. Paul Brightman plays lead guitar and joined for the bands’ US Tour in 2016 and Al Campbell who joined the band in 2009 plays bass. Alan has a pristine pedigree in Punk after serving 13 years with UK SUBS and playing with both Marky Ramone and Jayne County and the Electric Chairs.

With such anthemic like songs as SING WHEN YOUR WINNING making the charts both here in the UK and Europe and other songs in the last 4 years such as LAST GANG IN LONDON / GOODBYE BILLY BLUE / SHOUT and more recently SIGN OF THE TIMES, the band have achieved so much against the tide. The band are praised for kicking arse onstage at a ripe old age and dumbfounding audiences worldwide with their passion and stage presence!
