Description

Why DON'T you play some Ska? Checkered Past presents their third ska primer, this time heading across the pond to explore Ska in the UK from 1998 to 2020. Rob and Engineer Joey chat a bit about movies and AI before delving into the UK's storied history with Ska after Two Tone from the street level Ska Punk of Citizen Fish and Capdown to the dub/reggae /hip hop vibes of King Prawn to the cheeky ladiness of [spunge] and all the bands they influenced along the way.Check out the Canadian Ska and Patchanka episodes for more Playlist-style Primers!Hosts: Rob and JoeyEngineer: JoeyEditor: JoeySkassociate Producer: Chris Reeves of Ska Punk InternationalSpecial Thanks: Common Sense Kid for vetting the playlistPatreon: www.patreon.com/checkeredpastNEW MERCH: www.checkeredpast.ca/merch

Checkered Past is the #1 Edmonton-based Ska History podcast. Every two (tone) weeks siblings Celine and Rob dig in on a different ska band covering their history, impact and catalogue. Expect a lot of jokes, culture discussions and of course, ska-based puns. Great for new, lapsed and casual listeners of the genre as well as fellow Skaficianados!
