Professor Ratbaggy

|
Professor Ratbaggy is a sometime four-piece band based in Melbourne, Australia.
Sometimes though of as a side-project of iconic Australian singer-songwriter Paul Kelly, the band is in fact its own entity: Kelly is merely one of the four members.
Hadley, Haymes and Luscome would frequently play as The Casuals, as well as being members of Kelly's regular band.
Professor Ratbaggy's songs are often instumental and purely groove-based with reggae, dub and funk influences.
With Kelly often busy with his solo career and work in film and TV composition, Professor Ratbaggy's live shows have all but ceased and their recorded output remains at just the one album; this is not to say that the concept has died and there remains a strong possibility of further playing and/or recording.
