December 3, 2021

London based ska/punk/rock band Buster Shuffle announced a brand new record  today. “Go Steady” will be released March 18th, 2022 via the band’s own label Do Nothing Records. In addition the band also shared their new single/video “New Badge For My Uniform”. After the devastating effects of the pandemic and other troubles on tours in Great Britain and Europe, which directly affected British artists, Buster Shuffle decided to finance the album through crowd funding and use the power of the fans to spread the Shuffle-gospel far and wide. Bandleader Jet Baker comments: “It was a few hard years with the pandemic and therefor we thought that we ask our loyal fans, that grew with us for more than 10 years, to help us release the album. We have never done something like this, but we saw other bands working with their fans successfully to release music and we thought that our time has come now.” Jet turned at the peak of the lockdown to the friends of punk music, to release a bad-ass AA-side-7-inch-single “Unsung [Read More]
