Formed in 1979 and once described as “conspiring to make dancing the only
way to walk”, the Selecter led the ska revival movement, along with 2-tone
labelmates, The Specials & Madness. Mixing punk, ska & reggae, their debut
album ‘Too Much Pressure’ successfully reflected the social and political issues
of the early Thatcher years in Britain and gave a voice to disaffected youth
across the racial divide.
2011 saw the return of this most vital and visceral ska act, reuniting the
original singing duo, the female icon of the 2-tone era Pauline Black and the
stylishly charismatic Gaps ‘De Killa’ Hendrickson, who assuredly deliver
stunning performances of classic hits like ‘On My Radio’, ‘Three Minute Hero’,
‘Missing Words’ & ‘Too Much Pressure’ alongside new cuts from their new
album, for both old and new ska fans.
The brand new 10 track album ‘Made In Britain’ explores the multicultural
landscape of today’s Britain & beyond.
Sold out gig, great vibes. Pauline, Gaps and the band were totally fantastic. All the Rude Boys & Rude Girls came from all over Scotland & Reason was reinforced. Join in!
The Selecter, on the Reading Rooms stage!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
