Me First and the Gimme Gimmes (or the “Gimmes”) is the result of the collaboration of several artists from the Fat Wreck Chords family. Members include Joey Cape and Dave Raun from Lagwagon, Fat Mike from NOFX, Chris Shiflett from No Use for a Name and the Foo Fighters, and Spike Slawson from the Swingin' Utters. The band records nothing but punk covers of popular songs from some of the most un-punk genres.
