About this Event
Get ready to move your feet as this event is sure to get you out of your seat and onto the dance floor. Can't think of a better way to shake off the end of summer blues than a night of ska, rocksteady and reggae at the very cool Tabu Room in the historic Hotel Waldorf. If you are a fan of 2 Tone, Trad Ska, Rocksteady and Post-Punk/New Wave.... this is the show for you!
The Legendary SKABOOM! (with founding members of the Villains) are headlining the night. You want want to miss this - a band that has filled dance floors across Canada since the late 80s!
The Semitones will play in the middle slot and bring their unique take on 1st wave & trad ska with a post-punk feel that's sure to get you out on the dance floor. Veterans of the Vancouver music scene, The Semitones have been playing select shows for 3 years and have just released a self-titled 3-song EP on all streaming services.
XU Wave are a talented group of expats from the former Yugoslavia opening the night with a mix of punk, new wave and ska songs from Yugoslavia in the 80s and 90s
