INFO
Welcome to the London Ska Orchestra. We play our own brand of modern, hornful ska.
​
We do covers, re-working tunes into our own unique style. Everything we play, is designed to get you dancing. We like to push the ska genre to the limit, keeping things invigorated with our repertoire choice. Our sets are full to the brim with an eclectic mix of tunes, drawing from:

​Classic Ska - think Skatalites, Don Drummond, The Maytals
​
​​​Ska Punk​​ - Reel Big Fish, Streetlight Manifesto, Less Than Jake
And most importantly....

​Our Own Modern Ska Stylings - bespoke re-worked versions of modern songs you know and love, transformed into our dancefloor filling ska masterpieces!

We're also working on a crack set of originals, but they're being kept tightly under wraps until completely ready.
​
Lineup:

We are a 7 piece band consisting of:
Singer
Trumpet
Alto Sax / Clarinet
Tenor Sax
Electric Guitar
Electric Bass
Drums
Between them, these musicians have played at venues from the Royal Albert Hall, to Buckingham Palace. They've played Reading and Glastonbury Festivals, performed live on BBC Radio 3, and work with organisations from the London Symphony Orchestra to bands like the Bombay Bycycle Club. Skills? Yarp.
