THE SKAPONES

We had a fabulous time at the O2 Academy Newcastle on may 29th as support to Dave Wakeling's The Beat. Also in support were ska juggernaut Bombskare from Scotland.

Great crowd, nicely packed- we had  a great reception and a favourable review in the Northern Echo!

at the end of a  great Beat set, Dave invited a couple of Skapones onstage for a rendition of ranking Full Stop/Mirror In the Bathroom - see video attached here.

It was a great nice of ska and reggae and great to be back at the Academy.

Cheers to Dave & Sean at Mad Management London for booking us!

Ladies and Gentlemen! 
We are almost there. 
Final songs are being mixed & mastered and the long awaited debut album from The Skapones "Cradle To Grave" will be out shortly! 
Tonight we can unveil the album cover - Huge thanks to Dave Moran for his help.

Last time we did this with "From Cradle To Grave" we hit no.1 in the UK Reggae Charts -  is it too much to think we can aim for that again?
