2 Sick Monkeys formed in December 2000, as a live two piece bass and drums, primarily to support Darrin Mooney (Primal Scream) at a drum event in Swindon.
They have now played over 400 gigs (270 in the last 3 years) including 4 European tours.

They have built up a strong live following and have supported bands such as Subhumans (twice), Anti-Nowhere League (twice), Discharge, Total Chaos (twice), UK Subs, Inner Terrestrials (4 times), The Buzzcocks, Goldblade, 999, Citizen Fish, Targetpoint, Captain Everything, Neville Staples, The Vibrators, Sonic Boom Six, The Fight and Lord Bishop Rocks.

Their influences range from the complex rhythms of Nomeansno to the catchy melodies of Green Day.

September 2002 saw 2 Sick Monkeys release their debut 5-track CD “Full Flavour Behaviour”, their second CD, the 4-track EP, “Nowhere Nothing”, followed in August 2003.

The debut album “Curse of the Monkeys” was released in October 2005.

Each year has seen the amount of gigs increase and everywhere they’ve played they’ve been asked back.
They describe themselves as tight, melodic and percussively in your face……..Basically……

Small Outfit, Big Sound!!

2008 will see them releasing a new EP (October) as well as writing and recording material for their second album (due, hopefully, in Spring 2009).
