MATINEE SHOW 2pm

Saturday 8th Nov

Mark Foggo - A Scouser who found himself in Amsterdam, Holland when the Great British 2 Tone / ska boom hit in 1979, Foggo soon became a prominent figure in Europe's very own ska scene, most notably with his band Mark Foggo's Skasters, formed in 1987. Foggo's music, which he describes as "modern, bizarre, non-influenced, up tempo ska" is characterised by his observational and darkly comic lyricism, as well as his manic and boisterous stage personality.

An amazing, veritable one man skanking industry, his own all-ska record label and booking agency Skanky'Lil Music has been operating since 1990, leading him to be called "the hardest working man in ska" and "a ska missionary" on a "never ending quest of playing and supporting ska music where ever he goes".

A fabulous, rare opportunity to see Mark Foggo this afternoon in The Ancestral Seat Of Madness and London Ska temple The Dublin Castle…
