Hey everyone,
Here is one of my recent Sunday afternoon chill sessions. They have been moved up by 30 mins, so if you listen live, please note the new time change. So to kick off the fact that this is now 2 hours, I went off the cuff and did something very chill and very different for this show. As you may recall I know even less about Dub than I do 2-Tone, but I know it's chill. So that's why today the Sunday afternoon Chill Session is "Dubbed" Dubsteady Tonight. I stumble and fumble through this episode, but it is a cool, chill and diggable show. Hope you enjoy!
Stayed tuned to Rocksteady Tonight for all the best Ska, Rocksteady and Reggae tunes from yesterday, today and tomorrow!

Quick turn around with tonight show. I have departed slightly from the Sunday afternoon chill sessions, just for now. School is keeping me very busy and I felt i was getting a little detached to what was happening now in our ska scene. As a result I kicked up some new tunes and busted out some banger. Have a lot of bands starting to get back on the road so go support your scene, and do it safely. Much love to you all and I will be back again soon .

Another throwback episode for you. Don't get me wrong am still spinning live weekly shows, but these were some of the great older shows. This one in particular is all traditional stuff, leaning very heavy on the Rocksteady side of things just where they should be! As always stayed tuned to Rocksteady Tonight

Sorry it's been a while life gets crazy sometimes. The real kicker is I have some episodes ready to post. I am just wicked lazy! So this week I am throwing you al curve ball. I am posting Episode #75 because my buddy Mark wanted to listen. I have the rest before this ready to go though, maybe in the next few weeks I will get them up. This show I take my regular Sunday Afternoon Session and put a spin on it. I am deviating from my trad Sundays for a while because school is going to not allow me to do my shows Tuesday, so this is how I will stay current until next semester. So enjoy this episode is a banger, and I am sure you will enjoy the Hell out of it.

With Summer fast approach and the weather ratcheting up I thought it would a great idea to fire out a show of some killer new tracks and some of my favorite older tracks and a couple of legends in there too to rounds things out. Just what you need to get yourself fired up and into that dancing mood before the dog days of summer find you a drunken mess in a kiddie pool. Be well friends !

It has been a while so I thought it was time to post another new show. While the best way to listen is live at the times listed below, I will keep putting up shows as I have the time to. This episode is a nice mix of stuff including a handful of new tracks from the likes of The Articles, Danny Rebel and Winds of Matterhorn for starters. As the weather gets nice the tunes get hotter. So fire it up and enjoy it the way ska is meant to be enjoyed... LOUD !

I deviated my usual Sunday Traditional Chill Session this week, but fear not I still have you some chill cooking up. For the longest time I was not down with Ska tunes that did not have lyrics. As I worked my way backwards through 3rd Wave Ska in the tail end of the 90's I started to appreciate it a little bit. Well I appreciate it plenty fine today, but simply do not spend enough time doing so. So today's show it all Instrumental tunes from the 60's all the way up to today. You really get to hear the wide diversity and many influences in this brilliant music and its absolutely awesome! Hope you dig it and Happy Sunday. If you enjoy the show please subscribe and share.
