BAKED A LA SKA

Event information

Baked A La Ska are the "heavy heavy sound" of Manchester, a super charged 11 headed ska monster on a rampage through the dance floors of the UK leaving a trail of skanked out bodies in their wake.

It's a band of assembled oddballs and pranksters brought together by keyboardist and wizard Mr john Ellis, fronted by an un-holy trio of singers: Frank "The Skank", Tommy Robot and Kuntri Ranks, who combine with the soft lift and harmonica magic of Robin Sunflower. Baked A La Ska also feature one of the tightest rhythm sections in Manchester with the "chops to make you drop".
Their second album, Just Desserts, sees the band playing their trademark mix of spaced out and spooky originals plus quirky covers that have been put through their ska machine.

Baked A La Ska are the house band for the Shake 'n' Bake clubnights at Manchester's Band On The Wall, and have performed riotous sets at THe Kendal Calling, Matthew Street Festival (Liverpool), Hungry Pigeon Festival (Mancester), Mintfest (Cumbria) and Gaz's Rockin' Blues (London) amongst many others.
