BIO:
During their 16 years together, many bands
have come and gone, but with the release of their new album -
El Ritmo de la Vida - Skavenjah remains one of the constants in
the world of SKA music. Skavenjah has worked very hard to become
one of North America’s
premiere SKA and Reggae bands, and the strong songwriting on their
new album, together with their incredible live show is proof of
that. From their home base on the Canadian prairies the band tours
relentlessly, continually expanding on it’s already dedicated
worldwide following as they consistently sell out shows with
their trademark mix of SKA, Reggae and Soul music.
In addition to over 20 International compilation appearances, Skavenjah
has released 5 full-length albums: Put Some Skank In Your Tank (1993),
All Dressed Up (1996), Little Monsters (1999), Light It Up (2003)
and El Ritmo de la Vida (2006).
