Alright, let’s do this, it’s time to kick it into gear with this session of 23min of Ska! We’ve started strong 2 weeks ago, then we hit the 10yr anniversary last week and now it’s time to power through with some killer ska! Oddly enough, it is apparently ska show season where I live. I saw a bunch of bands a week ago, and I’m seeing another huge group of bands this weekend. And this isn’t so unusual, to be honest! This happens most years, bands tour the South West in order to beat the chill from touring a lot of the rest of the country I guess. It doesn’t matter much because, well, damn, I get to go see some live ska, and there’s nothing wrong with any of that!

It’s late
Welcome back to 23min of Ska! I’m really happy to be playing so many new bands on this episode! For me ska and ska/punk will never be a nostalgia act. Sure, there’s plenty of older bands that I dig, but man, nothing compares to sifting through the internet or used record bins finding new and interesting bands, the ones that are keeping ska alive! So I really hope you all dig this episode, a lot of “research” (sitting in my office jamming out to ska music) went into this one, and check these bands out!
