Influences
The Skatalites Charles Mingus The Ventures Jazz Jamaica Prince Buster Chet Baker Charlie Parker
Ska Toons is a rocking collision of ska, funk and jazz, where Prince Buster meets Duke Ellington, The Skatalites meet Charles Mingus and The Ventures meet Don Drummond.
A solid blowing horn section of tenor, soprano sax and trombone, very groovesome rhythm section of guitar, keyboards, bass and drums together with the vocal talents culled from the Munday family band create an irresistible mix of great classic ska, skanked-up jazz instrumentals and rocking off-beat reworkings of class pop songs.
Compulsive dance music, great songs, brilliant playing, high energy and loads of fun.
Ska Toons. 'nuff said.
Unfortunately we can't put any tracks up 'coz strictly speaking we don't own the ol' copywrite, chortle chortle...bear with us, originals up soon...xx
Hello Ska Toons! LOVED the past two gigs I've been to! And I am more than looking forward to attending the rest of your gigs! Your loyal supporter! Helene xx
