We’re going five wide again this week. Don’t see all that of a common theme in these. There’s a little ska, some punk bands from the south, one from Jersey. But all from line 7 of the Riot Fest poster or lower. All should get consideration when the schedule is released and conflicts abound. Or an aftershow.
Less Than Jake are billed as ska punk. I remember them about the same time the third wave of ska blew up with Reel Big Fish, Skanking Pickle, No Doubt, Goldfinger, etc. And I threw them in the same category. But they’re much more pop punk than ska, but still have a cool ska sound. Take a three piece punk band and add a horn section. How cool would that be? That’s Less Than Jake.
They play Sunday at Riot Fest.
