Strange Tenants: Ska'd for life - with Baggy Trousers

The Strange Tenants are still Ska’d for life and are coming back to Brisbane this September FOR ONE NIGHT ONLY to play one more time for all their QLD and northern NSW fans. Strange Tenants: Ska'd for life - with Baggy Trousers

Formed in 1981, Australian Ska legends The Strange Tenants are rightly proclaimed as the Godfathers of the Australian Ska movement. Taking their cues from English bands such as the Specials, Madness, Bad Manners and the Beat, fusing Jamaican rhythms with punk energy and their own Militant Style.

Join us for a nostalgic journey spanning over four decades of ska and other classic hits. The show kicks off with Haret’s fresh and jumping mix of favourite and original sounds, and is followed by Baggy Trousers bringing the bouncing, upbeat Sound of Madness as a nod to early London ska influences. If this isn’t enough, the evening climaxes in a crescendo of Australian Ska from the legendary Strange Tenants.

It’s years since the Tenants were here and it’s going to be a massive night with all the big hits and more. Don't miss out on this chance to experience the magic of The Strange Tenants with Madness and more in the mix just like you did all those years ago. Get the crew together, pull on your glad rags and come on down to The Triffid. It’s going to be massive and fans are travelling from miles away to be here with all the SE QLD crew for this show.
