Animal Chin

The Minneapolis-based ska-influenced pop-punk trio Animal Chin comprised singer/guitarist Jamie Woolford, bassist Andrew Gruhn, and drummer B.J. Wuollet. The group debuted in 1997 with the full-length All the Kids Agree, quickly followed by the EP The Ins & Outs of Terrorism!, the latter released through Gainesville's Fueled by Ramen Records. Shortly before the release of 1999's 20 Minutes from Right Now, which included the Terrorism EP and seven additional unreleased songs, Animal Chin disbanded. Woolford soon formed the Stereo, while Gruhn joined Kill Sadie. ~ Jason Ankeny
