Beat Soup

Ska, Pop, Calypso

Biography

Danceable upbeat horn driven Ska, Pop, Calypso, Rocksteady, and Reggae originals and covers. Beat Soup has been compared to Bim Skala Bim, Madness, Elvis Costello and The Specials. Their original music is inspired by British Invasion Pop, 2Tone Ska, and bands like Talking Heads and even The B52s! The 8–piece dance band features the classic sax-trombone-trumpet horn section on Caribbean and Rock Beats. They have been together since the early 1990's and are currently recording their 3rd CD.

“In clubland, get dance-crazy with Beat Soup, a high-kicking group of ska-rockers at Johnny D's tonight.”
— Steve Morse, Boston Globe
