Listen, smile, and start to move your feet! News and updates from the fabulous SKA TRAIN, your favourite ska tribute, festival, & party band! |

|
The Ska Train journey has started in style! |
|
|
With the end of the year just around the corner, we look back just a few short months to the summer of 2023 when the Ska Train left its very first station and began this wonderful, happy, musical journey around the Midlands! Getting a brand new band off the ground was always going to be a challenge, but we persevered, found some brilliant venues and audiences, had loads of fun, and shared some great music to kick things off and let the world know we had arrived! |
|
|
In the last few months of 2023 Ska Train played five extraordinary dates at five outstanding venues, so huge thanks to the 2-Tone Village, Murphys, Temperance, Skank for Heroes, and Potters Green Social Club for your early support. |
|
|
...and 2024 is already shaping up to be a full and busy year of musical treats, with many dates booked both locally and further afield! Just check out the website for the band's full gig listing. |

Choose a Song to add to our set list! |
|
|
At Ska Train we pride ourselves on our unique and special brew of song choices, which include ska favourites from the UK 2-Tone era alongside some fabulous Jamaican ska originals. But we also love a curve-ball song choice, something more obscure, or maybe even a non-ska classic tune that gets the Ska Train treatment and will delight our audiences. |

And with that in mind, it's over to you! What song do YOU want to hear coming to a Ska Train gig near you soon? Just click the button below to nominate your choice: |
