Fuzigish is a ska punk band based in Johannesburg, South Africa.
Formed in 1997, Fuzigish have become veterans of the South African punk rock and ska scenes, and have performed at and headlined almost every festival in the country.[citation needed] They have released three CDs through their own indie punk label Red Ambulance. Fuzigish have toured internationally with bands like Frenzal Rhomb and The Selecta, and have brought out pop punk band Lagwagon for their first South African tour. They supported The Violent Femmes in front of 12,000 people in Johannesburg in 2006, and Big Willy and Ampie Omo joined the Fems on stage as their brass section "The Horns of Dilema". In March 2007 Fuzigish released their latest album "Roll With The Punches".
