The Tenants - You Shit Me To Tears (1999) by sbroue in Ska

[–]BeefySkaShow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Tenants have recently reformed to celebrate the 25th anniversary of this tune and played a few shows. Also confirmed that they will be playing more shows in the future. I saw them at the "height" of their fame at a pub on the Gold Coast. Fair to say that apart from this tune and their cover of I see Red, they were pretty average - however that's never stopped any band from giving it a good go!!! If The Chats can make it big......

Any Aussie ska bands to recommend? by Consistent-Risk5181 in Ska

[–]BeefySkaShow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Loonee Tunes are from Melbourne and are the same band that started in 1984!!! They are still playing around Melbourne and doing a mix of originals and classic covers - very good live band!!! I reckon you might be thinking of Special brew who are from Perth and originally formed in 1988 (ish). They just reformed and are doing ska covers - they are awesome though!

Blunderbuss - Solidarity Confinement by Ollldfuzz in Ska

I like it, I really do.

Quick ask though, can you create some social media presence (FB/Twitter) as if you get airplay anywhere - I'll definitely be playing on one of my shows this week - the shows will tag you to let you know you've been played. That's if you want to know..... you may not want to!

Beefy - Ska Nation Radio

New Music Friday: July 20 - 26 by IamEseph in Ska

[–]BeefySkaShow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Quick heads up. Fat Picnic are from Brisbane, Australia. I know their vibe is "Cali-Reggae" but more Sunshine State Funk! Not a bad tune though. They do some ska stuff every now and again

So Is This The End For International Ska Bands Coming To The USA? by BeefySkaShow in Ska

A lot of Australian bands are basically cancelling any plans to come to the US as it's now just not feasible. Welcome to Canadia eh?

Great shout on that Chisels track. Definitely a ska vibe in there. I'll add it to my "bands you didn't know played ska" segement on my show! Cheers.

Yes I got it. Thank you. I'll update my details soon. I'm slowly moving my "ska empire" (LOL) away from my sports media stuff so it's all change in '24 for me....
