Blending elements of soul, ska, rock, and R&B, their multicultural lineup and electrifying live shows helped shape a unique sound that resonated across generations. Founding members Clyde Grimes, Jerry Miller, and Chuck Askerneese led the band to cult status with hits like “Free Yourself,” “I Spy for the FBI,” “What’s Gone Wrong,” and “Wild Child.” Today, Chuck Askerneese leads a lineup of veteran musicians from the American ska and punk scenes, continuing to headline shows, play festivals, and honor the legacy of one of the most influential bands in American ska history. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events2/banners/1bbe5fc0-31dd-11f0-8350-afeb6882cfac-rimg-w925-h740-dcd8d8d8-gmir.jpg DJ QuelineDJ Queline is an open format DJ who takes you on a journey through the sounds that shaped her diverse musical tastes growing up in LA.
