Rendering from their slot on trailblazing internet station Cowbell Radio, Gaz and Norm of the Beat Generation bring a lick of the Caribbean to Blackpool Cricket Club on Sunday 5th April.

Getting the skank rally underway, Jerry Dammers, founder of The Specials is on hand to whisk his way through a sublime selection of convivial beats.

Changing radio frequencies momentarily, the iconic Don Letts of Radio 6 also makes a welcome appearance, then it's back over to Cowbell's Gaz and Norm who'll install even more hits from ranging anywhere from northern soul to roots to keep the sun kissed vibes fluent.

Journeying through the classics as well as their own material - native band Ska Face bring their international appeal to the live stage (see them in full force above). Support comes from mod rockers Heavy Sol Band and Malady and Medicine with their bluesy, soulful approach. Tickets available here.
