About Combo Zombo
Combo Zombo are a Surf Punk band hailing from Carlisle, Cumbria. The band started their own record label called Matchbox Classics when all the members of two local bands; The Limps and No Support contributed £50 each to fund the creation of a split EP entitled 'Opposite Sides' releasing two tracks from each band.' Chris and Keith formed Supermatix from the ashes of No Support in 1981, released another EP called 'Bad Timing' then formed The Wanglers with members of The Limps and Adrian Jonnson from The Spivs. They released their seminal EP 'Kickin' out for the Coast' which featured the signature tune 'Surfin on the Solway', the album 'Wax!' came the following year. In 1984 the band re-booted themselves as Combo Zombo and released 'Zom Bee Eye Eee' before taking time out for other projects. Although they did all get back together at various times during the '90s for festive shows. In 2012 Chris, Keith, Chuck and Adrian hit the boards again for the first time in 15 years with a 'Matchbox Classics presents' evening at the Club Victoria in Carlisle, they were joined by Izzy Strugglin' and Captain AD for the set. There are threats of more action from these surf-punksters!
