This is an important public service announcement (with guitar!) reminding all ska and skinhead reggae fans in the New York City area that the great King Hammond is coming over from London to play two shows in December--one in Manhattan/Harlem at The Shrine and the other at The Lake in Brooklyn/Bushwick. (I'll be at both!) He's going to be backed by the always incredible The Hard Times, so these promise to be mind-blowingly, booty-shakingly awesome gigs.
These days, it's not too often that we have out-of-country ska musicians performing here in NYC (a shame, really), so make sure to mark these dates (below) on your calendar and come out to these shows! Do it!
