   About duppy a` jamba
duppynolagrp started in the spring of 2006 and minted at a legendary 420 house party, the duppy a jamba began as an experimental quartet playing simple countrified ska and reggae, since then the group has grown into a 7 piece juggernaut of old timey ska, languid rocksteady, funky-punky reggae and smoked out dub delighting dancers and drinkers, smokers and thinkers across the cincinnati area, we have opened the cincy punk fest, we have closed the cincy ska fest, we have been nominated for two CEA's 'best world music', we are seven men on a mission...ghost of the crawfish...every spoil a style... "The biggest thrill of the nominations for me was seeing Duppy ..A Jamba up for Best World Music...The Duppies are an amazing old school aggro-Ska band that plays with furious Punk energy. If you like old Dub Reggae and early Ska, you gotta check ‘em out." -Rick Hickey, Citybeat You should create your own MySpace Layouts like me by using nUCLEArcENTURy.COM's MySpace Profile Editor!
