Gringo Ska have kept to these roots with a lively, high tuned, drum kit leap, rock-solid bass lines and the sharp, off-beat guitar chops that set the feet moving. Grooving on top are the melody lines, taken up by fruity sax and high altitude flute - a jazzy feel and plenty of improvisation - nice!
The unbelievable sounds of the likes of Don Drummond, Tommy McCook and Roland Alfonso are celebrated, resulting in a rich mixture of rocksteady, calypso and jazz which creates a really skanking sound.
Loosen up and let the Gringos fill your head with harmonious melodies and entice your body with compelling rhythms."
