The Frantics (Clinton, South Carolina)

The Frantics was a punk rock band from Clinton, South Carolina.[1] Founded by Kevin Mac (vocals/guitar), Timmy Timmy (guitar/vocals), Anthony Price (bass/vocals) and Todd Skeleton (drums/skinny). Drew Perry replaced Todd on drums in late 1998, but only recorded a handful of songs with the band.

The band formed out of high school in 1995, and began recording immediately (one demo album and two 7" EPs in their first year). Frantics toured the U.S. through 1999, recording two LPs and two more 7"es along the way (as well as countless compilation tracks).[2]

They have toured with and/or supported touring bands like: AFI, Parasites, Cletus, Against All Authority, The Pull-Outs, Blanks 77, Flatus, The Vandals, MU330, Bouncing Souls, The Force, Zeke and Mustard Plug.

2005 saw a one-time "reunion" show for the Frantics, playing to raise funds for a cancer-stricken local club owner that booked them during their heyday.
