Skarabeez

Last sunday we had a lot of fun during a photoshoot with local skaband the Skarabeez. Mostly it is a pain in the ass shooting more than three people, but with these guys (and two girls) it was an easy job!
Lead singer and organ player Robert was in the last version of Los Cheatos, the surf band I played in the 90's. Although we never did a live gig with Robert, it was one always fun to play with him, since he's an excellent musician. Soon after the split up of the band, he started the Skarabeez.

They play old skool ska, like the Skatalites and Lauren Aitken. They do a lot of opening gigs for Mark Foggo & the Skasters. Wich makes the circle round again, since one of the first gigs I did as a little punk in the 80's was as a supportgig for Mr. Foggo. It's a small world after all!!!!!
