SKA – Kingston to Coventry

Hear ska songs like ‘Message to You Rudy’ and the sounds that inspired bands like The Specials and Madness. Band Red’s Tribe takes you on a musical journey from 1960s Jamaica to 1980s England, Kingston to Coventry.

Perth’s finest musicians will perform the lesser known 60s jazz and rocksteady with the distinctive Caribbean driving offbeat rhythm.

The show will close with the greatest 80s ska hits. The story of how punk and rock musicians and Jamaican immigrants came together to create the ‘Two-Tone’ label and ska – still loved 40 years later.

Amazing vocalists Leah Guelfi and Justin Gross + rhythm section + 3-piece horn section will recreate both of those eras. Reminisce about the ska you danced to and enjoy the beautiful music that inspired it.
