We have the distinct honor and pleasure to once again support the King of Ska, Derrick Morgan, at this year’s Supernova International Ska Festival!
Many thanks to everyone who helped make the show Friday at Parkway amazing. Then yesterday we had the honor to attend and play the wedding of dear friends of ours. What a party! Now, though, we have definite thoughts about the 7AM departure from our hotel.
Looking forward to September when we meet up with the amazing Susan Cadogan and play this tune at the @supernovaska.bsky.social

Absolutely thrilled to be playing @supernovaska.bsky.social in September!!
We thought that was hilarious too. We joked after that whenever we back someone we should do it under that name instead of our own.
One of the most remarkable moments in EST history. So much fun working with Sister Nancy!
