Me First And The Gimme Gimmes

Me First and the Gimme Gimmes (often shortened to just “Me First” or “The Gimmes”) are a punk rock supergroup and cover band that formed in San Francisco in 1995. The Gimmes work exclusively as a cover band. They specialize in rapid-fire punk interpretations of a wide range of songs, often with a humorous edge. The band is named after a children’s book of the same name by Gerald G. Jampolsky and Diane V. Cirincione. The band’s first release came with 1995’s Denver, a 7″ single released on band member Fat Mike’s record label Fat Wreck Chords, featuring two John Denver covers.
