The Red Stripes are Hong Kong’s premier Ska band and have been
playing to audiences all over Asia for the past thirteen years,
including packed shows in Singapore, Tokyo, Osaka, Taipei, China,
Kuala Lumpur, Indonesia, Seoul and Bangkok. Their brand of vintage
era ska features a 10 piece band hailing originally from the UK,
Canada and Australia. They have performed at top events in Hong
Kong and as backing to Neville Staple and Roddy Radiation (The
Specials), and supported the likes of Roy Ellis, Keith and Tex, The
Toasters, The Skatalites, From The Jam and Johnny Osbourne amongst
others.
After releasing their debut 10 track album ‘In The Ska East’ with
legendary Ska vocalist, writer and producer Sean ‘Cavo’ Dinsmore’
(The Toasters) at the helm, the band began to receive critical
acclaim worldwide. The album featured guest vocals from The
Specials original frontman Neville Staple. The band have also been
featured on Specialized Records tributes to Trojan Records and 2
Tone, Rudies All Around Vol 2 on Happy People Records and Ska Cares
released by Supernova Ska. In 2019 the band went into legendary
Avon Studios in Hong Kong and recorded their second album ‘Made In
Hong Kong’ with top recording artist and producer King Zepha;
recorded on vintage equipment to create an authentic Ska sound that
blends elements of Soul, Dub, Reggae and Rocksteady.
The band returned to Avon Studios in 2023 to record their latest
album ‘Better Must Come’ with King Zepha once again at the helm.
Moving on from the 2 Tone style of their first album ‘In The Ska
East’ and the mono vintage sounds of ‘Made In Hong Kong’ the new
long player features their biggest sound yet adding some rootsy
dub, tropical sunshine reggae, uptempo 2-Tone and scorching 60’s
ska, with rotating male and female vocals!
