They formed in 2000 by Jason and Andy, and thought that the Cambridge music scene could do with an injection of raw musical energy. At this time there were no ska covers bands in the area. From the moment of their debut gig in August 2000, the band started to build up a considerable following and have since gone on to play festivals, rallies, pubs and clubs. Big 10 have played support slots to many acts from Bad Manners, Laurel Aitken and the Hotknives to name but a few.
