THE SKATASTROPHICS – SATURDAY, 3/14/20 @ 3:00 PM
The Skatastrophics are an amalgamation of two Houston ska/punk bands, Always Guilty and Fuska, formed in 2014 when members of both bands wanted to start playing ska and reggae, in more of a traditional form.
![Bertie with #NathanielRateliff’s #newmusic release “And It's Still Alright” which came out yesterday 2/14 ❤️. It is available on cd, & coke bottle clear vinyl! ⠀
⠀
Nathaniel Rateliff has written and recorded his first solo record since the explosive debut of his work together with The Night Sweats. And It's Still Alright is an intensely personal 10-song album of vibrant country-blues, badland ballads, ornate Americana and jazz-inflected R&B. Rateliff's warm baritone, ranging from gently hushed to a guttural howl, imbues these superbly drawn character studies with raw, naked emotion.⠀
⠀
“Both a poignant tribute to his friend and former collaborator [Richard Swift] and a weary meditation on love and death, And It's Still Alright cuts a curious balance between tender introspection and a playful sense of confidence he's carried over from the Night Sweats era.”Allmusic.com⠀
