We JUST got back home from an AMAZING Winter tour of the USA with Less Than Jake and Authority Zero!! We had soooooooo much fun touring with those guys
and we miss them already!
A HUGE thank you to everybody who came out to see us play, you guys all helped make this a completely sold out tour and once again we proved that Ska-punk is alive and well in 2015!!
For those of you in the USA that didn’t get a chance to see us play, don’t worry, rumor has it that there will be a second, and maybe even a THIRD leg of this tour!! We can’t wait!!

Since most people who’ve seen us live in the past 6 months have been noticing, we have a new drummer playing with us so we thought we’d let you in on what’s up with what’s going down with that.
At the end of our June 2014 tour Ryland “the Rabbit” Steen, our drummer for the past 10 years, got a call from one of his all time favorite classic rock/folk bands from the 70′s America (yes the “I’ve been through the desert on a horse with no name” band) and they needed a drummer. Well this was quite an opportunity for him so of course we urged him to do it and gave him our blessing to go on hiatus as long as he needed to.
So now, in his absence, our dear friends in Suburban Legends have been generous enough to loan us their amazing drummer Ed Larsen who has done an excellent job of filling Ryland’s shoes thus far.
So there ya go, that’s the deal with that.
We’ve got lots and lots of shows coming up so check out the “tour dates” section of our web site. Also rumor has it that there will be a second leg of our tour with Less Than Jake this summer so we’ll let you know more about that as soon as we can!

We also love playing at breweries, beer festivals, and pretty much anywhere where there’s people who want to dance to fun ska music, we’ve even been known to play a wedding or two now and then! Get in touch with our booking agent today!

It’s been exactly 20 years since we debuted our song “Beer” at a small club in Long Beach, CA.
Our horn players at the time had just quit the band so Aaron Quickly scrambled to write a few songs with no horns for the upcoming show. The setlist also included “Go Away” and “Why Do All Girls Think They’re Fat”.
When we went in to the studio in 1996 to record “Turn the Radio Off” our producer/record label president INSISTED that we add horns to this song because we were a “horn band”.
Times sure do change because when we were recording “Why Do They Rock SO Hard” in ’98 that same guy who forced us to add horns to Beer asked us for a “No Horns Mix” of the album because horns were “Out” in the music industry. We of course refused as you can tell…any way, if you’re still reading this, you must be really bored! Have yourself a beer and enjoy the video!!

We just got back from our 7 week UK/Europe tour and we just can’t believe how amazing it was!
All the club gigs and festivals were so much fun, there wasn’t one bad show on the whole tour! We made lots of new friends and got to hang out with some old ones too! Awesome to see our friends from Sonic Boom Six, the Skints and Coolie Ranx too!
A reel big thanks to everybody who came out to see us play and support us, you guys rule!
A huge thank you to Ed Larsen from Suburban Legends for filling in on the drums this time around while the Rabbit AKA the Red Nightmare AKA Ryland Steen was off playing with the band America.
Ed is an awesome drummer, a swell human being and he makes one hell of a delicious margarita!
Also, huge thanks to the Magnus Puto and the Jellycats for supporting us at the UK club shows. Special thanks to Emma from the Jellycats for singing with us every night on “I Know You…” and “She Has a Girlfriend Now” too!
And a gigantic thank you to the Sigourney Weavers and Band Geek Mafia for their support on all our German shows! Great bands, great people, good times, that’s what a Reel Big Fish tour is all about!
Now it’s time for us to relax at home and have ourselves a beer before we head out on tour again!

Here’s some pics of our fondest memories of “the Don’t Stop Skankin’ European Vacation”:

Thanks to our new friends in Survay Says! for joining us on the 4th leg of the Don’t stop skankin’ tour! Awesome band and a fine bunch of gentlemen! It was a skatastic tour! Special thanks to all the local ska bands that opened up for us at the shows! Good to see that people out there are still keeping ska music alive!
Here’s some pics from the tour:
