Lush Puppy. South African punk rock band.
Lush Puppy was a Punk rock band from Warner Beach South Africa. The Band formed in 1999 and lasted until 2001. Band Members were Toby Hampton ( song writer, vocals and guitar) , Jason Graham ( song writer , backing vocals, guitar) ,Carl van Niekerk ( lead guitarist), Kevin Labuschagne ( drums and backing vocals). The band played many major festivals in the County including the Durban Festival and Splashy fen where they performed along side bands like Seether( then Saron gas) and Jimmy 12" . They were interviewed and played live on national TV SABC,s morning show. Their song Edd was playlisted on 5fm,s late night zoo and had major success as the band travelled extensively through out the country. In the year 2000 came big changes as Lead singer Toby Hampton left for his Native country of Alaska. The band became a 3 piece for a period of 4 months before adding  Chad porter on bass guitar. Carl van Niekerk also left to be replaced by Barry Walker. With changes came real problems as Alcohol and drugs became a problem in the band . At this stage the drummer Kevin Labuschagne left the band and tried to warn new incoming drummer Layton Potgieter of the problem . Sadly in late 2000 after coming back from a gig in Durban the band,s vehicle was involved in an accident and  drummer Layton Potgieter died after only being in the band for about 3 months. The band then split and Jason Graham went on to establish a new band called Manuvah to land. Kevolab (talk) 10:38, 2 February 2023 (UTC)
