If you’ve forgotten how to party then take a crash course from these Nanaimo-based musical dervishes, who deliver a wacky version of west coast ska that has been accessorized with hilarious vocals, a four-man horn line, and a mandate to get the whole crowd going crazy. The band consists of drummer Brodie Ketelsen, vocalist/saxman Matthew Carter, bassist Kayle Hammel, trombonist Dave St. Jean, trumpeter/vocalist Scot Rounding and guitarist Tristan Armstrong.
