The Masonics are the Kings Of Medway Beat, known for being ‘the best Rhythm and Beat combo since The Milkshakes’, and there’s a very good reason for that…

With Mickey Hampshire (The Milkshakes, Mickey And The Salty Seadogs, Mickey And Ludella, Mick Hampshire), Bruce Brand (The Pop Rivets, The Milkshakes, Auntie Vegetable, Thee Headcoats, The Kravin’ “A”s, The Clique, Dutronc, The Voo-Dooms and more) and John Gibbs (The Wildebeests, The Kaisers), this Medway-based trio fire rhythm ’n’ beat and rock ’n’ roll!

Since 1991, The Masonics have been raising roofs all across the land, and disturbing audio grooves on at least ten studio albums and eleven singles. There’s no stopping them!

During 2022, the group joined The 5.6.7.8’s on their five-night UK tour, and then again in October 2023 on a ten-night tour of Japan.

Throughout all that, Spinout Nuggets have released three 7” EPs, a first-time-on-vinyl edition of their ‘Outside Looking In’ album (originally released on CD in 2004), a new studio album (Sursum Tibiam Vestram), and a joint 7” EP with The 5.6.7.8’s.

The Masonics triumphantly return to the 7” format with two new extended players, released simultaneously.

Following on from the success of the previous two Rock’n’Roll EPs, The Masonics unleash a further two extended players of dancehall fillers.

The first EP includes four songs that the group have specially selected to cover for these, with shared vocals and noise, proving that there’s nothin’ shakin’…but The Masonics!

Limited to 500 copies.
