    Artist description
    We're something new in the ska world. We have two trumpets, sax, trombone, drums, guitar and bass. All the horns have taken high school band, so there is a bit of jazz influence. We like to mix it up alot, we range from a mexican shakedown to a funk song, a little traditional ska to some instrumemtals. Alot of our music is based on live performances, getting the crowd involved, and always playing something you can really swing to. Maybe a christmas carol or two, we play for the show, not for the record.
    Music Style
    More on the lines of traditional ska, it's catchy
    Musical Influences
    Grade 10 girls, specials, bad manners, rat b@g heros

    Artist History
    Late summer of 97, Lauchie macdougal was asking Simon jelliffe (guitar) to start a ska band. Since I was in a punk band with him at the time (DCU), he grabbed me and a few friends to hook up. We started playing at all ages shows, parties, traveled a bit around the island, did a few bars and even shared the headline for natal day at the charlottetown civic center. We've recorded an album. We've changed a few drummers, lost a horn, gained another. We really look for the Big band sound.
