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. Join us for The Vale’s festive do and skank the night away.
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 lilt 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”.
“UTTELY BONKERS BUT IRRESISTABLE” Manchester Evening News
Baked A La Ska are synonymous with legendary shows at Manchester’s Band On The Wall, and have performed riotous sets at the Kendal Calling, Matthew Street, Saddfest and Hungry Pigeon festivals.
