  • Fuzigish is a ska punk band based in Johannesburg, South Africa. Formed in 1997, Fuzigish have become veterans of the South African punk rock and ska scenes, and have performed at and headlined almost every festival in the country. They have released 4 full lenth albums through their own indie punk label Red Ambulance. Fuzigish have toured internationally with bands like Frenzal Rhomb and The Selecta, and continue to headline shows and festivals in SA. They supported The Violent Femmes in front of 12,000 people in Johannesburg in 2006, and Big Willy and Ampie Omo joined the Femmes on stage as part of their brass section for The Horns of Dilema. In March 2007 Fuzigish released their latest album "Roll With The Punches" to sold out venues all over South Africa. The album is very well received and is being play listed on most South African radio stations. A few of the tracks will appear on the soundtrack of Footskating 101, a new film by the Crazy Monkey crew. In 2006 Fuzigish invited American pop punk band Lagwagon to play in South Africa. The success of that tour ensured that Fatwreck band's The Mad Caddies and NOFX came to SA in 2007, with Fuzigish joining them on stage with shows in stage in Dbn, Jhb and CT. 2008 saw the band continue to play festivals in and around South Africa, including a memorable show with UK punk legends The Exploited. They also colloborated with SA Hip Hop Superstars Skwatta Kamp on local reality TV show JAMsandwich. Their last show for 2008 was at the TUKS FM New Years Bash, that saw Fuzi playing with good friends Fokofpolisiekar. The band has been on hiatus beginning since the beginning of 2009, with members concentrating various side projects such as Jay Bones' acoustic "Rambling Bones", Rockwell's punk n' roll fueled "Last Bout" & Big Willys' diabolical death metal bass wizardry in "Architecture Of Aggression". Rumours of new Fuzi album for late 2009/early 2010 are spreading.
