Biography
Fishbone is a Los Angeles band formed in 1979 whose original sextet mixed ska, punk, funk, metal and soul with humour and political bite. Albums such as 'Truth and Soul' and 'The Reality of My Surroundings' for #Columbia Records# made them cult favourites and a major influence on later alternative bands. After decades of changing lineups, founders Angelo Moore and Christopher Dowd led the band back with 'Stockholm Syndrome' in 2025.
