Biography

Speedball Baby is an energetic four-piece of rockabilly-inspired New York City art punk. The band was formed in 1995 and released two early EPs on Matador, earning them the attention of MCA records. Finding the major-label world not to their liking, Speedball Baby returned to the indie scene, releasing the I'm Gonna Stomp Mr. Harry Lee 10". Uptight, their sophomore full-length, was released in 2000.
