Riskee & The Ridicule
Born in the working-class towns of Kent, Riskee & The Ridicule transform fury, heart, and wit into something entirely their own—a fearless fusion of punk energy, grime flow, and hardcore punch. Political without preaching. Emotional without ego. Music built to be shouted back from the crowd.

Frontman Scott Picking delivers words like a weapon—part social commentary, part therapy—backed by the razor-sharp force of Jim Baxter, Jordan Mann, and Matt Oxtoby. Together, they’ve forged a sound that hits just as hard in a sweaty club as it does through your headphones: fast, furious, and relentlessly focused.

From Download Festival to Rebellion, from DIY dives to sold-out headline tours across the UK and Europe, the band has cemented its reputation as one of the most authentic and explosive live acts around. Every show feels like a rally—raw, real, and driven by connection.

Riskee & The Ridicule chase neither trends nor nostalgia. They push British punk forward—with honesty, rhythm, and the courage to say what others won’t.

Loud, fearless, and impossible to ignore—Riskee & The Ridicule are the sound of now.
