We are going back to our home.. where this band was formed by cheap booze and great performers getting together..
Lets party, lets have fun and enjoy the night.
Our usual suspect Daz booker will not be on the drums as he is laying some beats for the legend Lanny Waugh that night.
But luckily we have Ed Schaefer, a bad ass drummer who needs no introduction, to fill his shoes.

The Shiznits are a hot funk and soul band featuring veterans of the Taipei music scene. The band was formed by random jams at live music venues. The band's repertoire includes a strong collection of original songs, as well as numbers by Prince, James Brown and D'Angelo, and even a few reggae classics. Featuring the intensity of D.C. Rapier on saxophone, the explosive power of Nicolas Chenuet on trumpet, the rhythmic and funky guitar playing of Nick Brown and the soulful vocals of Arman Torus, the Shiznits' sound is driven by the rock-solid rhythm section of bassist Sean Su and drummer Daz Booker. Many of these names will be familiar to music fans in Taipei as both solo artists and members of other bands playing regularly around the city.

DC Rapier(U.S.A) is a huge voice in the blues genre in Taiwan. He also heads the band Bopomofo and Blurrs Brothers.
He is a great performer with great energy on the stage. He plays the saxophone, guitar, harmonica and who knows what else.

Nick Brown (UK) is a humble and incredibly talented guitar player, singer and songwriter.
He is in heavy demand for gigs for his full sounding guitar playing and wide musical taste.

Nicolas Chenuet(France) is a seasoned trumpet player from France where he studied music. He worked as musician before
coming over to Taiwan. The skies the limit when he starts soloing.

Daz Booker(UK) is a drummer with great dynamic and groove and a great performer. He has played for nearly a decade with the Blues Vibrations
and Wild Alibis who play regularly in venues around Taipei.

honing his songwriting skills.
