Vinny Nobile (Pilfers/ Bim Skala Bim)
What’s your name and what do you do in the band?
I’m Vinny, I play trombone and sing a little bit
How did you come about being in Pilfers? How did the band come together?
The band formed in in 96′ after me and Coolie had collaborated on a demo of his songs. The ideas just kept growing and we knew we were on to something. We started playing out all over the country. The next thing we know we’re this underground national touring band.
Coolie Ranx
All right Coolie, I know you probably hate to give some history about yourself, but some people might not know; so would you please tell us how you came into the music scene?
Well ok :-) I got in the biz by way of the dancehall scene in Brooklyn New York. A few friends of mine did it so I used to hangout with them and they taught me how to do it. Made my 1st record it got heard by a manager and she introduced me to the Toasters the rest is history :-)
