Five years of carnival punk and international party music. Two albums, seven music videos, four European tours, countless UK gigs and festival dates………..oh, and one torched van.

The whole band perform with swagger and without shame. Their purpose is to coax, seduce and tantalise audiences into the joy of dancing with abandon. They have honed a live show full of upbeat numbers with influences fed directly from Eastern Europe, Jamaica and the last 50 years of rock ’n’ roll.

In early 2014 The Sexy Weirdos worked with respected producer Gavin Monaghan (Robert Plant, Lee Scratch Perry, The Destroyers) to record their 10 track second album Kill the Beast, the follow up to their self recorded release Victory for the Monsters.

Playing all kinds of venues in England, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Italy, Slovenia, Germany and Czech Republic, the road has been kind to the band. Enjoying special moments such as 200 Italian activists singing the antifascist anthem ‘Bella Ciao’ back at them after throwing it into a medley at the end of an outdoor gig up on Verona’s old city walls, or playing a set to local Roma families in the main square of an abandoned fortress town in the Czech Republic, in a way completing the circle of the music’s journey via an English interpretation.

Check out the video below:

With a summer of gigs, another Spring European tour and an album to promote with new songs being road tested and refined, Johnny Kowalski and the Sexy Weirdos are a band in fine fettle and ready to rise to the challenge of taking their fun and carefree spirit where the world will have them.
