The name Hog Hoggidy Hog has been etched into the mosh-wounds of the South African Punk/Ska scene. It’s been 11 action-packed years since the young hoglets blessed the decaying stage of the Purple Turtle with their debut performance. Over a decade down the line not much has changed. They may be a lot more professional and sound a lot tighter but it’s their raw energy that has lasted and makes for a truly unique experience.
They’ve played every big festival in the country. Including Woodstock Oppikoppi, Splashy Fen, Up the Creek, Mr. Price Pro, Uprising, Knife Fight etc etc etc. They’ve had feature articles in magazines such as Blunt stage, SL and even Cosmopolitan. Their songs have gained extensive radio play throughout the country especially local varsity stations who are more dedicated to the less commercial South African music.
In August 2005 the Hogs embarked on their first overseas tour to Europe. They played a mixture of smaller club gigs and bigger festivals throughout Germany Austria, Switzerland and Slovenia. The audience response was a sign of great success and a bright future in Europe. The Hogs realized that there is a definite hunger for their unique African ska flavour overseas. They’ve been invited to go back and tour through UK Germany, Austria, Switzerland, Slovenia, Belgium, Netherlands in Jan/Feb 2007
Preparation for forthcoming album has already begun is to be produced by Theo Crous in his new state of the art studio in Bellville Cape. Bowline has also taken over the distribution of the Oink! album and will be a great asset for the new album. The album is set to be released in June 2007.
