Formed in London in 1994, Skunk Anansie instantly caught attention with their unique blend of alternative, rock, and punk influences, coupled with a dub sensibility which showcased their multi-cultural background.
Their outspoken lyrics tackling social and political issues, alongside vocalist Skin’s unapologetic queer sexuality and high-fashion aesthetic, meant that they became one of the most talked about and important bands of their generation and quickly led to global success.
With a string of critically acclaimed albums including Paranoid & Sunburnt, Stoosh’ Post Orgasmic Chill and 25LIVE@25, as well as hit singles such as ‘Hedonism (Just Because You Feel Good)’, ‘Selling Jesus’, ‘Twisted (Everyday Hurts)’ and ‘Weak’. Skunk Anansie have sold millions of records around the world and headlined Glastonbury Festival in 1999. After a hiatus in the early 2000s, the band triumphantly reformed in 2009 and have continued to release new music and tour the world ever since.
Skunk Anansie released their long-awaited seventh EP, The Painful Truth, in summer 2025, following acclaimed singles ‘Piggy’ and ‘Can’t Take You Anywhere’.
At the end of 2025 Skunk Anansie announced a joint headline tour with Garbage for June 2026.
