Short Description
The only ska band you will ever need... if you want a whole truckload of 2-tone and 60s ska straight in your face, you've come to the right place!!
Act Introduction
The Incredible Skank Brothers are the leading ska band in the East Midlands, and we have been playing shows to packed venues all around the area since 2014. With the full 7-piece ska setup, including brass, we faithfully reproduce the sounds of Madness, The Specials, Bad Manners and the rest, and take your event straight back to the days when the sound of One Step Beyond immediately filled any dance floor. The opening shout of "Hey you, don't watch that, watch this!!" fills the floor, and non-stop ska classics keep it that way right through the show. By the end, the audience are guaranteed to be exhausted, but they'll be happy!!
What to expect
We provide a high-energy ska show with all music and vocals performed live, including live brass. We play the biggest hits by all of the top ska acts - including 2-tone bands from Madness to The Specials, and 60s acts from Desmond Dekker to Toots and the Maytals. The full show is two hours long, played in two parts - with a 15 minute break in the middle to give everyone a much-needed rest, including the band! Full sound and lighting equipment is provided, and a package is also available with DJ service to provide music and requests before and after the gig and during the interval. A great time is guaranteed for all!!
Available Songs
Bad Manners - Can Can, Lip up Fatty, Sally Brown, Special Brew, Walking in the Sunshine, Wooly Bully Beat - Can't Get Used to Losing You, Hands Off She's Mine, Mirror in the Bathroom, Ranking Full Stop, Tears of a Clown Bodysnatchers - Let's Do Rocksteady Dave and Ansell Collins - Double Barrel Desmond Dekker and the Aces - 007 (Shanty Town), The Israelites Dr Feelgood - 20 Yards Behind Ethiopians - Train to Skaville Harry J Allstars - Liquidator Lambrettas - Poison Ivy Madness - Baggy Trousers, House of Fun, It Must be Love, My Girl, Night Boat to Cairo, One Step Beyond, The Prince Maytals - 54-46 Was My Number, Monkey Man, Pressure Drop Pioneers - Long Shot Kick De Bucket Piranhas - Tom Hark Prince Buster - Enjoy Yourself (It's Later Than You Think), Madness Rancid - Time Bomb Selecter - On My Radio, Three Minute Hero Skatalites - Guns of Navarone Specials - A Message to You Rudy, Concrete Jungle, Gangsters, Ghost Town, Nite Klub, Rat Race, Too Much Too Young Symarip - Skinhead Moonstomp
FAQ
Q: How long does setup take? A: Setup time is approximately one hour.
Q: What are your space and power requirements? A: We are a 7-piece band so we need an appropriate stage size. We are experienced at squeezing ourselves into small spaces when necessary, but for the full experience, the more space we have the better. Power to the stage area from a minimum of 2 sockets is required.
Q: Do you take requests? A: Within genre. Please feel free to ask, but don't ask for an Elton John song!

On Saturday night, we had The Incredible Skank Brothers and to say they had the job of kickstarting the night... they did that and 10x more, a full dance floor and 100s of smiling dancing faces, just awesome.

I would highly recommend booking The Incredible Skank Brothers. They have played at our venue on numerous occasions and have always packed the place out. They are fantastic entertainers and you’ll be sure to be skanking all night!
