Bouncy Spring music. Lots of horns and off beats and bouncy as hell. It makes writing fun. Operation Ivy, the English Beat, the Specials, Madness, Skankin’ Pickle – all ska bands from when I was young. All spectacular examples of the genre. Many’s the night I bounced around in a club to ska music. I highly recommend finding some and trying it out.

I am and was a huge ska fan when I was younger. Glad to know there are still people who love ska. Cheers, Michele
The older I get, the more glad I am that I grew up with punk and new wave and ska. I like new music, but there’s nothing like punk to get you in the mood to riot, or ska to dance to. I’m so glad that I’ve found a fellow devotee of the good stuff!
