Kuckles was an Aboriginal Australian band in the early 1980s.
History
Kuckles (Broome kriol for cockles[1]) formed in 1981 after a group of students from Broome, Western Australia moved to Adelaide, South Australia to study at the Centre for Aboriginal Studies in Music (CASM). Their music moved from acoustic calypso toward an electric reggae rock style,[2] but also incorporated country, church music and rock.[3]
Bart Willoughby, who was also at CASM and was a founder member of the band No Fixed Address around that time, played with the band on and off.[4]
They recorded an audition tape, Milliya Rumarra, which won them a trip to Germany to the Third Annual International Cologne Song Festival in 1982.[5][3] They returned to Broome later that year and disbanded.[2]
Kuckles contributed to Chi's musicals Bran Nue Dae and Corrugation Road.[3]
Chi and Manolis later were part of a new band called Bingurr, which means "moonlight" in Bardi. Pigram played with Scrap Metal and The Pigram Brothers.[3]
