Rude Boy George - Ska/Reggae Versions Of New Wave

Postby Marco On The Bass » Wed Apr 03, 2013 3:53 am

Greetings new wave fans! This is a great message board! I wanted to post about a new band based in New York City called Rude Boy George that is performing ska, reggae and rocksteady versions of 80's new wave songs. The band is performing in NYC on Saturday 4/13. Come on out if you are looking to hear your favorite new wave songs reinterpreted via Kingston, Jamaica meets Coventry, UK!

Check out a 60's rocksteady version of the INXS classic "Don't Change" recorded during a recent rehearsal:
