Rossendale’s annual SKA festival returns August bank Holiday weekend at St Mary’s Chambers on Sunday 25th August 2024. This year we have decided to spice things up a little with the addition of Punk and Mod and we are sure that this is our biggest and best line up yet.
The line-up features some of the best local Ska / Mod and Punk acts on the circuit.
Headlined this year by the mighty Midlife. Midlife are no strangers to the venue and have appeared in 2 out of 3 of our previous events.
Britain’s premier 6 piece Ska/2 Tone Covers Band, delivering a high energy and extremely entertaining set, brilliantly covering the likes of Madness, The Specials, Bad Manners etc. They tour the national circuit and are regular support band with Max Splodge for Buster Blood Vessel and the Bad Manners band, when they tour the Northwest and the Midlands.
They are also a regular band on the main stage at The Great British Alternative Music Festival, which is held at Butlins Resorts at both Minehead and Skegness. They have also played alongside the likes of The Stranglers, Bad Manners, The Undertones, Sham 69, The Addicts, The Exploited, Cockney Rejects, Theatre of Hate, Spizzenergy, Angelic Upstarts, and Anti-Nowhere League etc.
