Skip Bifferty were a Rock band formed in early 1966, when '''The Chosen Few''' from Newcastle Upon Tyne changed their band name when got a new singer, Graham Bell. Their outings on vinyl were few and far between, but they had a following on the "live" circuit and are remembered with great affection. Their manager was Don Arden .

They went through some personnel changes (i.e. three drummers). Some members reappeared as Ian Dury 's Backing Band The Blockheads in 1977.
