Thee Headcoats

Thee Headcoats was one of the various band monikers assumed by garage rock primitive Billy Childish (aka Bill Hamper), a native of The Medway Towns, Kent, England. Over several decades — and regardless of the fashion of the time — Childish has churned out no-frills garage rock, the likes of which saw a resurgence in hipness in the new millennium with groups such as the Hives and the White Stripes. The ultra-prolific bandleader/producer/poet/painter/publisher first emerged in 1977 with punk group The Pop Rivets.
