MATAMOSKA

FW Shows and Broken Goblet present this killer ska party Friday, May 17th with Matamoska, Bumsy and the Moochers, Thirsty Guys, Call Me Malcolm, and Backyard Superheroes.

Formed during the infancy of Los Angeles’ ghetto Ska-Punk movement and  considered “OG’s” of the current Ska movement, MATAMOSKA has gained notariety in the underground ska scene since 2000 for their  signature mix of styles, sounds, influences, and languages. Following the release of their demo, Matamoska!: Ghetto Ska in April of 2001, the band developed a  dedicated following and singles like “Problema Sin Solucion” and “Soledad”  were featured on various Ska compilation albums such as Smelvis Records’  Backyard City Rockers (2002) and Obscene Records’ Keeping the Spirit  Alive (2002). Over the past two decades the band the band has released several EPs and LPs to much fanfare and continue to be a driving force in the Los Angeles ska scene.

Chicago’s Bumsy and the Moochers have been bringing their brand of relentless ska punk to the masses since 2012 and continue to support their 2022 release Diet Violence with steady diet of shows and touring.

New Jersey’s Thirsty Guys dropped their debut LP, …Out to Lunch!, on Bad Time Records last year but have stayed relatively under the radar, but that’s sure to change real soon.

Backyard Superheroes have been a staple on the Jersey/Philly ska scene for the better part of the last decade with standout releases like 2018’s Never Give Up, Never Surrender.

The UKs Call Me Malcolm hit the US in support of their upcoming Bad Time LP, Echos and Ghosts which drops in March.

Doors 6:30PM, 18+ to Enter, Advance Tickets are $18 and $23 Day of Show
