Image Jonathan Richman, early Elvis Costello, Thee Headcoats mixed with Ren and stimpy and your getting close. Bucky are a 2 piece band with ace tunes and lots and lots of love from the bath/ bristol fanzine scene. The drummer Joff has one hand who plays unlike def leppards drummer- he does it the hard way with one stick and his stump. singer and guitarist simon plays a spasmodic slide guitar to make billy childish proud.

The tunes are richmond-esque with daft lyrics that make you laugh "I'm a pony, but soon i'll be a horse' with a shambolic yet harmonic live shows.

If you haven't heard or seen them check out the website please its here. Let me know what you think? good? bad? have you seen them- I don't think they've ever played in London- can we start a campaign to bring them round the country.

check out the video on the site to see live crazyness and one handed drumming for real...

can't believe you're trying to sell them on the fact he's got one hand. bet he'd love you for that.

These guys are great. They supported us when we headlined Choke back in August, a couple of lovely fellows who put on a brilliant show. I might suggest that we book them for Noise Annoys in Southampton.

Saw them again last night when they supported us in Cardiff. They were as brilliant as the first time, very funny, great sound.
