   About SUPERDOT
Superdot has been playing their brand of ska, reggae and rock since the summer of 1993 when Bobby Barnes, Jeremy Abbey, Chris Hooper and a handful of others decided to get together to re-invent the Jamaican Ska styles of the late '60s, '70s and early '80s.

Throughout those 15 or so years, the band's line up changed constantly, totaling over 40 members. But the group has been somewhat stable for the past 6 or 7.

Superdot has played all over the Detroit area and Michigan, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin and Colorado. In addition, the band has also done a little bit of undocumented work in our neighbor to the south, Windsor, Ontario.


Detroit Music Awards Superdot has been nominated for several Detroit Music Awards, and has won two:
• 2000 Outstanding Ska Artist or Group - Nominated
• 2001 Outstanding Ska Artist or Group - Won
• 2002 Outstanding Ska/Reggae Artist or Group - Won
• 2007 Outstanding Ska/Reggae/World Artist or Group - Nominated
• 2008 Outstanding Ska/Reggae/World Artist or Group - Nominated
• 2009 Outstanding Ska/Reggae/World Artist or Group - Nominated (April 17, 2009)
• 2009 Outstanding Ska/Reggae Songwriter (Chris Hooper) - Nominated (April 17, 2009)

Actually, that lingo-flyer sucks. It doesn't even have the date on it. We're firing our creative team, and hoping you guys can save us...
