The Blockheads rose out of the pub rock scene, fusing elements of punk, jazz, funk, and reggae. Formed in 1977, the band was originally led by Ian Dury until his death in 2000. The band now consists of Chaz Jankel (guitar and keyboards), Nathan King (bass), Mick Gallagher (keyboards and piano), John Turnbull (vocals and guitar), John Roberts (drums), and Mike Bennett (lead vocals).
Their greatest hits include "What a Waste", "Hit Me with Your Rhythm Stick", "Reasons to Be Cheerful, Part 3", and "Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll". Their latest album Beyond the Call of Dury was released in 2017.
