The Fighting Cocks
Music
Friday 11th July
For over 20 years, 8°6 CREW has been performing on the ska, reggae and punk-rock scenes of France and Europe
Born and raised in a vibrant cultural milieu, the members of 8°6 Crew share diverse backgrounds that have shaped their identities and musical paths. Growing up in post-industrial Europe, they became immersed in a web of musical influences. From traditional folk music echoing in their homes to the energizing beats of reggae and ska at local gatherings, early experiences forged their connection to music. In recent years, 8°6 CREW has shared the stage with The Selecters, the Skatalites, The Aggrolites, The Upsessions, Lion's Law, Derrick Morgan, Vibronics, Angelic Upstarts, The Toy Dolls, Los Tres Puntos, Bad Manners, Inner Terrestrials, Les Ramoneurs de Menhirs, Les Rats…
Their influences include ska from the Two-Tone period of the '80s, Third Wave and for reggae, the '70s and '80s. As for the band's discography, the 3 albums and 2 eps are distributed in France (Upvr, Mass prod) and Germany (Grover), then throughout Europe by alternative distribution networks. Each time, they were enthusiastically received by the ska and reggae public, and by critics on fanzines, websites and radio stations specializing in these counter-cultures.
