about

A collection of Studio, Demo and Live tracks from the '80's! What's Going On? and Mandela were released as a 7" single in 1987 on Brisbane Independent label, Bent Records. The 999 cover "Trouble" was recorded at the same time. All Day Till Midnight/You Ain't Seen Nothing Yet was supposed to be the follow up double A side single recorded early in 1988; however, this has remained unreleased until now. Somewhere along the line we went into a studio and recorded the first takes of a song we now call 'Ska Train', then known on our setlists as 'R'n'B Sax Thingy'. The final 2 tracks were recorded from the desk at gigs (most likely the Salisbury Hotel) and preserved on cassette. We hope you enjoy our '80's snapshot of a hard working Ska Band from Brisbane!

The Funaddicts is a 2nd wave Aussie Ska band who emerged in the 80's and quickly gained a solid reputation for high energy ska gigs around the East coast of Australia, combining the fun and frivolity of Ska/Reggae with politically based lyrics. Disbanding in the early 90's, the Funaddicts are back and keen to bring their sound to the rest of the world! New album 'What's The Rush?' available now! ... more
