The Skabilly Rebels are an English band formed in 2003 by Roddy "Radiation" Byers, formerly of The Specials and Sam Smith, who had previously worked together in rockabilly band The Bonediggers. The band is based in Coventry, England. Their songs, all written by Roddy Radiation, are a hybrid of ska and rockabilly music styles.
