On Sale NowFormed in 2007 by Jet Baker, Buster Shuffle quickly built up a formidable reputation on
the London pub/club circuit, effortlessly fusing cockney Ska Punk with authentic Rock
and Roll influences.
Buster Shuffle teamed up with Art Brut's Ian Catskilkin to produce 2010 debut album
'Our Night Out', which esteemed British music magazine, Uncut, gave four out of five
stars. It went on to win a number of high-profile fans in the process, including BBC radio
giant, Steve Lamacq and Pixies legend Frank Black.
The band went on the road around the UK and supports with Madness, The
Blockheads, The Selecter, The Wombats and The Beat along with sold out in-store
Fred Perry subculture gigs enhanced the band's burgeoning reputation.
The band’s second album ‘Do Nothing’ was released in the summer of 2012 and
featured collaborations with legendary characters from classic bands, Micky Gallagher
of The Blockheads/The Clash and Roddy Radiation of The Specials. By this time BusterShuffle had built a dedicated following on the European circuit. 'Do Nothing' regularly
charted on European bestseller lists as well as featuring on BBC Radio and XFM
(where frontman Jet Baker became a regular on Danny Wallace's breakfast show)
2014 saw the release of the bands 3rd studio album 'Naked' produced by Jamie Elis
(former wingman to mega producer Paul Epworth) which saw the band receive the
prestigious Q Magazine Track Of The Day accolade for their single “South” which was
also premiered by Fred Perry Subculture.
In November 2017 Buster Shuffle released their 4th studio album titled “I’ll take what I
want’. This latest offering is heavier, punkier and is a massive statement of intent from a
band that is bigger and stronger than ever. Their debut single “I don’t trust a word you
say” was premiered by the worlds most read newspaper, London’s “Metro” with
readership of over 1 million per day. Having made their first forays into the USA,
Canada and Mexico, Buster Shuffle have their sights firmly set on world domination.
2018 sees Buster already confirmed for many Punk Rock Festivals worldwide including
the prestigious Punk Rock Bowling in Las Vegas on their 20th anniversary show in May.
