Nuckle Brothers
The Nuckle Brothers were a third wave ska band from Huntington Beach that was part of the early 1990s Orange County, California music scene, inspiring such bands as Reel Big Fish, Save Ferris and The Aquabats. Playing their first show in March 1992 at the Ocean View High School Battle of the Bands, The Nuckle Brothers quickly built up a local following. They were best known for their high energy, sloppy and unpredictable stage shows. Their sound was a combination of high-speed ska with full horn sections and punk rock energy. The original band went through about 20 members, playing shows with such ska heavyweights as Bad Manners, The Busters, No Doubt, Dance Hall Crashers, Sublime, Skelatones, Skankin Pickle, Reel Big Fish, Suburban Rhythm and many more before breaking up in '95. Since then they have done a string of reunion shows throughout the country.

Famous quotes containing the word brothers:
“Last night I watched my brothers play,
The gentle and the reckless one,
In a field two yards away.
For half a century they were gone
Beyond the other side of care
To be among the peaceful dead.”
—Edwin Muir (1887–1959)
