Italian 2Tone/Ska/Skinhead Reggae band formed in 2005 in Cosenza – Italy by vocalist/songwriter Valerio (as drummer in that time), The Offenders became popular in their local scene after the release of “Rudeboys In A Dancefloor” in February 2006. Many months later, their second single “Hooligan Reggae” gave them the chance to sign for the German label Conehead Records, on which they released their first full length in November 2007. In that time The Offenders toured all over Germany while Hooligan Reggae was becoming a hit single in the european ska scene. In May 2008 Conehead Records released the 7" “ Wake up Rebels” and along with it The Offenders had the chance to play in many countries.
