The Decatonics are a powerful 8 piece female fronted ska band from The South Coast, featuring a 3 piece brass section. Their vibrant live show has built up a great reputation for its high energy and floor filled skanking nights. Drawing on the Ska, 2Tone, Soul, and Reggae genres, they deliver a mix of the classics along with a few lesser played tunes.… plus a few surprises with their own unique twist along the way, setting them slightly apart from your generic ska covers band.
While they are based on the south coast, The Decatonics play a mix of pub, club and festival gigs across the country including Skamouth, Teddy Rocks, Wilkswood Reggae Festival, Barnstomper and Skabour. They are regulars at Tybers Reggae Bar and recently added the iconic Dublin Castle to our CV. The band has previously supported The Skatalites, Neville Staples, Bad Manners, The Dualers, The Beat, King Hammond and The Undertones in venues including O2 Academy Bournemouth and 100 Club, London.
The band has contributed to and supported The Specialized Project for the last few years, recording tracks each year for their charity CD, performing at Specialized events and the annual Big One Weekender festival.
The Decatonics have been described as one of the hardest working ska bands around, that is what they try to do! We at The Stourvale look forward to welcoming them of 16/08/24 and skanking the night away from 9pm.
