And all the other greats of soul, ska, and reggae
Sounds Like
All the great ska and early reggae hits from Jamaica.
Recent Austin transplants, The Socialites have come from Madison, WI to spread their reggae and soul music to the masses.
The Socialites take their cues from the Jamaican legends of yesterday and the revivalist movement of today to bring a fresh sound to a classic beat.
When they're not grooving with their own crowd, you'll find them out and about, dancing up a stupor at ska and reggae shows or hitting up the nightly drink specials around town like true socialites.

Hey there everybody. I don't have a ride to skappleton and seeing how this is a Madison/Milwaukee based band, I was wondering if anybody in Madison could drive me to Skappleton day of? If you live in the Madison area and you're going, you should contact me so we can work something out.
