Artist description
A guitar-/keyboard-based indie/pop rock band who essentially played BritPop before BritPop was "formally" invented. Unfortunately Skiff are currently in a state of indefinite hibernation, however, I believe that these songs are too good to be forgotten. |

Artist History
Skiff were a rather good little five-piece from Bradford, England. Its history spans about three years from summer 1991 to Christmas 1993 during which time the band gigged comprehensively throughout Bradford and Yorkshire. Unfortunately, I don't think that any photographs of the band exist. If there are some, then let me know and I'll scan them in. |
