Skalls & Crossbones – kurz S&C – ist Fest, ist Festival, ist LIVE Musik, ist Party!
Auch im vierten Jahr mit der nunmehr 7. Ausgabe dreht sich der Abend voll und
ganz um die Musik, die wir alle so lieben: Ska, Ska Ska – immer in anderen
Facetten, doch immer mitreißend und schweißtreibend. Mal rockig & rotzig, mal
soulig & jazzy, mal punkig und laut, mal chansonesque & nachdenklich –
S&C ist offen für alle Einflüsse und ist gerade wg. seiner Vielfalt so beliebt.
Seid Teil davon und kommt vorbei, wenn es wieder einmal heißt: „finest bands in
ska & reggae“, denn Ska is fun, Ska is revolution, Ska is rebellion, Ska is peace!
LIVE:
* SKAPRIFISCHER – Ska, Soul & Reggae aus Dresden
* CHARLIE´S CHOICE – Soulbeat & Ska aus Berlin
* PORT ROYAL – Ska & Reggae inna pirate style aus Berlin
Who knows me? but call me BW pls.
