Meeting at music college in Brighton, this young band have pulled together so
many influences, to take a classic ska rhythm into the 21st century. They blend
established Jamaican dance rhythms, sprinkled with indie rock guitar and
catchy choruses that give this band a truly fresh and new sound. Clara Byrne's
mesmerizing lead vocal cuts through like a wave of emotion, her lyrical content
straight from the soul, with serious social issues explored through dramatic
delivery.
Formed in 2017, this band have come on leagues in a very short space of time.
Involved in The Camden Roundhouse Emerging Artists programme, Spider
Johnson (Potato 5, Lee Perry, Acid Jazz, Kioko) produced the first album really
pulling the loose ends together, giving a professional edge of experience to the
band.
Dakka Skanks are already picking up several live shows from promoters across
Europe, the first Spanish mini-tour of the Madrid area generated more offers
including several shows across Germany, France, Belgium and Spain. 2018
brought shows with Madness, Neville Staple, The Skatalites, headline slots
across the country and dates across Europe. 2019 bought more extensive
European touring, a show with the mighty Toasters and lots more as the year
moved forward, and 2020 would have seen Dakka Skanks playing at many more
festivals and events in the UK and beyond - Except for that pandemic........, but
undeterred Dakka have carried on releasing the tracks 'Mr Murder', 'Sir Action'
and the current ska anthem in the making 'Babylon Falling'.
After the first lockdown lifted Dakka Skanks had a very busy 2021 starting with
headlining the first live event in Brighton and The Dome and into festival
season with appearances at Illusive Festival, Tearout Festival, Victorious
Festival, Leeds Ska Festival and at Lakefest where they were so well received on
the Friday that they were asked to cover a main stage slot the next day sharing
the stage with Stereo MC's, New Model Army and Scouting For Girls, and they
finished the year on the main stage at House of Fun with Madness in Minehead.
2022 was another busy year with a European tour supporting Buster Shuffle in
June and support slots with The Selecter, Popes of Chillitown and The Dub
Pistols as well as a busy festival season culminating at Boomtown. On the
release front, the In Control EP was released in December to round off the year.
