The Business

Since the late 1970s, Micky Fitz and the Business have been doing
their thing — writing songs for the working class, in the
tradition of street punk and Oi! Fitz formed the band as a reaction to
the arty types co-opting the punk subculture. To that end, he focused
the substance of his band’s songs on topics for real people, people who
were earning their way in the world with their hands and sweat. Some
three decades later, the Business is still producing material in that
vein, from “Harry May” through to the more recent football-focused
“England 5 – Germany 1.” And while the supporting cast has
changed over the years, Fitz has remained a consistent frontman,
conducting catchy numbers that almost always entice the audience into
sing-alongs. The Business has what it takes to move a mixed crowd of
punks, hardcore kids, and general rock ‘n’ roll fans; just be ready to
dance, and dance hard.
