Ska Soundsystem

Born out of a shared love of ska, punk & reggae, and a post-pandemic need to let loose, and skank it up, a group of musicians and friends in Montreal have put together a project called Ska Sound System to have fun and make people dance and sing. Featuring members of several Montreal bands (Grimskunk, Me, Mom & Morgentaler, Colectivo, FoOlish, Francbâtards, Van Hornies, Blue Monkey Project), this group has no pretension other than to spread good party vibes through a diverse array of old school and modern ska, punk and reggae through the music of bands like Sublime, The Clash, the Specials, Operation Ivy, Rancid, Toots & the Maytals, Madness, etc... all with a touch of international and latin ska and a few Grimskunk classics to boot.

Né d'un amour partagé de musique ska, punk & reggae et d’un besoin post-pandémique de jouer, chanter, danser et faire le party, des ami(e)s et musiciens et musiciennes de Montréal partent un projet pour le fun : Ska Sound System. Formé de membres de groupes montréalais (Grimskunk, Me, Mom & Morgentaler, Colectivo, Francbâtards, FoOlish, Van Hornies et Blue Monkey Project), ce band n'a nulle autre prétention que de faire chanter, danser et tripper les gens à travers la musique diversifiée old school et moderne de ska, punk et reggae de groupes comme Sublime, The Clash, The Specials, Operation Ivy, Rancid, Toots & the Maytals, Madness... et quelques classiques de Grimskunk.
