Sunny Coast Rude Boys

2020

Overview | Music | Videos | Releases

The Sunny Coast Rude Boys are a 10-piece soundwave hailing from Australia’s Sunshine Coast beaches. United by a love of ska, this bumper-sized, uncontainable troupe of musical collaborators has attracted the attention of a diverse and growing fanbase around the country. The line-up has grown over the years with each member’s creative vision contributing to the ever-evolving, ever-electric sonic experience that has put the BRIZ-ska scene on the map.

Adding a generous dollop of sea spray and surf wax to the foundations laid by 2Tone and Trojan ska legends from The Specials and Madness to Prince Buster and Desmond Dekker, The Sunny Coast Rude Boys are known for their onstage antics and signature sound — a pop-tinged distillation of unexpected arrangements and seductive harmonies, invigorated by punchy horns and thumping drums.
