The Skatalites 60th Anniversary Billetter

"Without ska, there is no reggae. Without the Skatalites, there is no ska."

It's hard to overstate the importance of the Skatalites for the development of Jamaican music over the past 60 years.

They began life in the early 1960s as a loose group of Jamaica's top session musicians playing together in various studious and producing hit record after hit record. Working closely with icons such as Bob Marley, Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer, the Skatalites have shaped the essence of ska and reggae for almost 60 years.

Celebrating their 60^th anniversary, they bring their legendary sound to EartH Theatre this July.

We are now implementing a ú1 restoration levy per ticket at EartH, which looks to raise funds for ongoing works in the building. The majority of these funds will be spent on music education projects for community use, artist studios and maintenance to keep the building functional, as well as improving access facilities for each space. If you have any additional questions about our venue levy don't hesitate to contact us on info@earthackney.co.uk.
