   About The SKA BAR - Barnsley
The Ska Bar is a monthly event currently held at The Arches on Pitt St, Barnsley (South Yorks). Since restarting this year, Bands already to grace the stage have been Zen Baseballbat (moon ska soulsters), Three Minute Warning (2tone/punk welshies - fresh from the Do the Dog house), Weeble (amazing ska/punk from Nottingham) and several apearances from Barnsley's own Catch-it Kebabs and Skinboat.

Please tell your freinds about the Ska-bar but more importantly come down and support the scene.

If you're in a band and want to play then drop us a line.

Right Then....

Jimmy The Squirrel sign to Do The Dog Music!

We are happy to announce that the latest addition to the Do The Dog Music stable of bands is fast rising Nottingham based outfit Jimmy The Squirrel!

Together sine 2005, this 5 piece crew kick out a raw & rootsy, stripped down ska/reggae vibe in the vein of Chris Murray, Bedouin Soundclash & The King Blues.

Their highly infectious sound boasts heartfelt, soulful vocal harmonies underpinned by killer old school keyboard melodies & spaghetti westernesque guitar licks!

Due out soon on Do The Dog Music is Jimmy The Squirrel’s debut 4 song self titled CD EP.

You can check out one of the tracks from the EP, "Music We Throw", on the Do The Dog Music Myspace page at www. myspace. com/dothedogmusic & also the other 3 EP tracks, "This One’s For You", "Two Too Many" & "Seat Up High", plus 2 live Jimmy The Squirrel videos at www. myspace. com/jimmythesquirrel

unno if you know but we, at Kebabs HQ are about to buy a van which won't blow up on us (Unlike the last two, one of which pissed diesel onto the engine block and nearly exploded!)

So we're selling off our T-Shirts so that we can cover the costs of the new van (Kebabulance 3), but we're doing a right deal!

1 x T-Shirt
1 x Free CD
1 X Free Postage and Packaging

All you have to do is click on the image below to visit our shop.
