Blame Game do a ska/punk sort of thing. Definitely more ska than punk. www.myspace.com/blamegameska.

You should also check out Dilip & the Davs. www.myspace.com/davs.

Also, they're starting ska nights as of the 16th June (this wednesday) upstairs at the Flying Scotsman. At the moment its just DJs but I believe there may be live shows in the pipeline. Everpink may have more gossip on this.

I think they're playing at Devilles this weekend. Check the plugger website or if you've got facebook, join the Westska page (just search for it). They'll write up all the ska happenings in Perth.

Lately, westska Clicky here have been writing posts with the weekly ska gig guide in them. From the looks of it, there's a ska n dub party every sunday at Manhattans with local DJs and bands. They're worth checking out.

I'm not exactly a 'band' but I perform live MIDI dubs, with my home-built MIDI mixing desk ;)
Just throwing it out there... I haven't uploaded any demos for a while sorry.

Keep an eye out for the next Bad Manners gig in Perth. Buster Bloodvessel has been here twice in the last 6 months and played the Newport a couple of times supported by Special Brew, Isotypes, and Dilip & The Davs amongst others. Great fun and wonderful energy. Guaranteed great night out!

There's an up and coming reggae band just formed, from Perth, called JAHMOKO...playing at the fly by night club in Freo next Friday 27/04 and then in Bunbury at the Burlington hotel on Saturday 28/04 supporting Brisbane reggae band Paua..definitely worth checking out.
