3.3: What are the names of some ska bands?




Description

This article is from the Ska FAQ, by Tomas Willis tomas@twillis.com with numerous contributions by others.

3.3: What are the names of some ska bands?

These names are culled from various sources, especially Michael
Cancilla (mcancill@polyslo.calpoly.edu), Brian Rosenthal
(brianr@skamusic.com) and others on alt.music.ska. Giusy Grasselli sent
in more Italian bands. Hector Rivas (rivash@ing.ula.ve) sent info
about Venezuelan bands.

Thanks to everyone who sends me information. We now list over *760*
bands! Yes, we finally go `A' to `Z'.

The format: Bandname (Location) {Style} [time period]
e.g. Fubars, The (Verona) {Funky ska} [1989-1992]

So, please help! Send me any info you have for this little project,
which I think will make this band list much more informative.

Also, for bands with non-English names, I will alphabetize by the
name, *including the article* (`Los,' `Die,' `La,' etc.). That is,
`Les Enfants de St. Gall' are listed under `L,' even though, in a more
multilingual world I would list them under `E.'

Additionally, Jay Vidheecharoen, jvidhee@kuhub.cc.ukans.edu, snail
mail at: 1800 Engel Road #747, Lawrence KS 66045, is developing a
"Directory of Ska." Contact Jay for details.
