🎺 Releasing Friday: "Ska" Hazy DIPA (8.5%) ft. Centennial Cryo, Strata & Mosaic hops 🎶 This hazy, juicy double IPA is the first release in our brand new #GenreHazy series. Complex layers of bright fruit and dank resin swirl through this saturated hop bomb, mimicking the exuberant tones of blaring horns, reggaeton guitars, and syncopated percussion beats of third-wave ska. This beautifully simplistic depiction of an iconic ska instrument was done by Rockville's own @spicymustarddesigns. "Ska" Hazy DIPA (8.5%) releases in our @truerespite_distro territory on Thursday, in our tap room on Friday, and in our @thecraftcoalition territory on Wednesday next week. . . . #bethekey #mytruerespite #ska #thirdwaveska #trombone #hornsection #hazydipa #dipa #craftbeer #craftnotcrap #newrelease #certifiedindependent #indiebeer (at True Respite Brewing Company) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cp1DEM_NHfn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Throwback Ska Thursday: The ‘97 booking of The Skatalites in downtown Bakersfield was exciting and truly bizarre. The band’s Winnebago rolled up and out walked original members: bassist Lloyd Brevett, saxophonist Roland Alphonso, drummer Lloyd Knibb, and singer Doreen Schaffer and the rest of the band to the stage for a quick line check. The band launched into “Freedom Sounds” and it was on for ska fans and curious Bako attendees who had no idea who they were. Legends! THEE SKATALITES 🇯🇲 ! Band was tight, Lloyd Brevett blew out the @madcaddiesofficial bass cabinet and Lloyd Knibb was mad at Cesareo’s drum kit 🤷🏻‍♂️. What a night it was.... The band hung out afterwards for autographs and chats. I hooked up Roland Alphonso with some Chinese food at Wing Wah (extra shrimp) and off they went to the next show far away from home. Still have the signed vinyl from that night (swipe left). Both Mad Caddies and Mento Buru released our debut albums this year. The Spikes venue became Downtown Joe’s (closed down after a drive by shooting,) and is now the amazing and delicious @ccnoodlebar .✌🏽😎 . . . . #mentoburu #bakersfield #bakersfieldska #skatalites #thirdwaveska #downtownbakersfield #bakersfieldmusic #skaflyers #madcaddies #moonska #throwbackthursday #1997 #californiaska (at Downtown Bakersfield) https://www.instagram.com/p/CC_baBNAQsw/?igshid=1a3wlqgjatik4

Oi! Today we celebrate 23 years of our Moon Ska Records album “No Dancing Please!” Released 7-22-97. What the? Random Fun Facts: Recorded at a studio space formerly owned by Neil Young (located across from @goldenroadbrewery - and at a house in Silver Lake) - @rockeryeric & IIreno of Reggae Nucleus Mag stopped by during one session,) engineered & produced by Matthias Schneeberger who worked with metal legends The Obsessed, and was the sound engineer for Nirvana’s first Euro tour.) We couldn’t get started without bringing him a 12-pack of the darkest beer we could find (a German thing?) Fun guy 👍🏽. Percussionist Marcos Reyes brought in Latin jazz legend Victor Pantoja (Willie Bobo, Malo) to play on “Ain’t That Right” and “Spanish Grease.” He jammed with a bottle of brandy at his feet and was a blast to be around, cover art by @marlonhightower 🎨. Shout out to Moon Ska jefe Buck Hingley of @toastersnyc for bringing us Bakersfield musicos on board during the skrazy third wave. During the quarantine, the good memories are helping keep us sane until we can play live again!! Everybody be safe, wear a mask, be good humans, and GO DANCING PLEASE! ***Available for stream and download at Spotify, Apple Music, Pandora, Google Play, Youtube, or find a print copy from US, UK, or Brazil on EBay, Amazon, and beyond. Thank You for all the years of dancing support. Cheers amigos! 😎👍🏽 . . . . #mentoburu #thirdwaveska #bakersfield #bakersfieldmusic #skamixtape #moonska #ska #skacd #latinska #victorpantoja #mathiasschneeberger #californiaska #1997 (at Bakersfield, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/CC8syS4gQiy/?igshid=1xs6guympac6c

Before Sandrini’s, Lucky’s, and Gold Digger’s, there was Jelly’s at 1918 Eye St. in downtown Bakersfield. Always packed downstairs, but trying to get your measly guaranteed pay at the end of the night was a challenge. Club owner was a character. The quote was definitely a reference to the movie “Swingers” everybody quoted and the Kinkos copy flyer model was taken a copy of Lowrider Magazine. 😎Orale. 😂 . . . . . . #mentoburu #bakersfield #skaflyers #moonska #thirdwaveska #skaflyer #downtownbakersfield #nineties (at Downtown Bakersfield) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCRmbfkAryQ/?igshid=890t03tau674

Throwback Thursday: We started out playing farmers market nights at SLO Brew until we built a big enough following to be a weekend draw. Crowds were always bananas! Some of the best times ever and the first time we were handed $1200 cash from the door. We couldn’t make that type of bread playing Bako in the 90s. When then-bandmates Scott & Robbie we’re students at Cal Poly we used to stay in the dorms and always get some Tio Alberto’s Cantina after the show. Sweaty nights and a lot of premium brews - and they fed us well. Oh shhhh...Skankin’ Pickle...PICKLE! . . . . . #mentoburu #slobrewery #skankinpickle #thirdwaveska #moonska #californiaska #calpolyslo #nineties #skabands #slonewtimes #throwbackthursday (at Downtown SLO) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCJ2ZUOg7o4/?igshid=1d9h2pm2p772g

A triple-bill SKA scorcha in Fresno with #TheSpecials #LetsGoBowling - 1995? We had an early soundcheck, so we hung out in one of the nice dressing rooms, spotted a big ice chest full of Heineken and proceeded to drink it all. We didn’t know it belonged to The Specials and got yelled at. We had a great set though and ended up onstage dancing to “Simmer Down” with The Specials. All the bands were in top form. Thanks for the beer rude boys!
