Cool description of us on the Ashkenaz website:
San Francisco’s Coup de Ska plays old-school instrumental ska and Jamaican jazz, as if the original Skatalites were still going strong, when trombonist Don Drummond and saxophonists Tommy McCook and Rolando Alphonso created the sound that led to reggae, along with keyboard wiz Jackie Mittoo. When Coup de Ska hits the stage, it feels as if we’re all back in Jamaica in 1964 with some of the hottest island dance music and jazzy solos around. Coup de Ska is trombonist Pete Alcorn, guitarist Igor Belogolovsky, saxophonist Jacob Covington, trumpeter Mike Garcia, bassist Jake Myers, and drummer Brian Schwartz. www.myspace.com/coupdeska
