Ian England and Johnny F formed Blunt with the main aim of re-introducing Californian punks to long forgotten, and even rarely played, proper Old School UK Punk. Johnny got on the blower and secured the services of Ringo Fandango and Ian invited Skid Mark to a rehearsal. In January 2007 a mini-tour of California and Nevada was played along with The Negatives from Bradford UK, and The Objex from Las Vegas as well as some other local Los Angeles bands. Blunt's first live performance was at the Fat Liver Tavern in Lomita, CA, and other venues played were in Downtown Los Angeles at The Airliner and at The Cocaine, along with The Brokeass Cantina and Khoury's in Long Beach, and Las Vegas's famous Double Down Saloon. Blunt have received great feedback from punks of all ages, and have built an ever increasing fanbase in the Long Beach and Los Angeles area.
