Dyslexic Fish has been playing together for almost five years. Their music draws on a diverse range of influences from Ben Folds Five to Rage Against The Machine, the fusion of which has led to the development of a sound unique to Dyslexic Fish. The line-up of vocals, guitars, horns, bass and drums compliments this sound well, a blend of funk, rock and jazz.

The band were the winners of the Joondalup "Battle of the Bands" in 1998 and "Gozzy Rock" in 1999. The prize for the latter competition was two days in Pet Rock Recording Studio where Dyslexic Fish recorded a four-track EP. This CD received a number of favourable reviews, reaching number three on the 78 Records Local Charts and gaining radio airplay around the state on stations such as RTR and Heritage FM.
