‘Baked A La Ska’ will play at Rochdale Feel Good Festival

Date published: 11 May 2017


Manchester band ‘Baked A La Ska’ will play the main stage at this year’s Rochdale Feel Good Festival.

The 11 piece act has performed several sold-out shows at Manchester’s Band on the Wall as well as sets at festivals including Kendal Calling. They have released four albums showcasing their trademark mix of spaced out and spooky originals plus quirky covers that have been put through their ska machine.

The band, brought together by keyboardist John Ellis, is fronted by a trio of singers: Frank 'The Skank', Tommy Robot and Kuntri Ranks, who combine the soft lilt and harmonica magic of Robin Sunflower, with a tight rhythm section.

Their brand of fun in your face eccentricity, infectious feel good music and larger than life personality will ensure a party atmosphere on the main stage on the Saturday when they make their Rochdale debut.

Baked A La Ska will be joined by previously announced headliner Razorlight, Middleton band ‘The Bright Black’, The Karpets, fronted by Tom Hingley, Honeyfeet and the Delphina Kings.

Rochdale Feel Good Festival returns on Friday 11 and Saturday 12 August, for another showcase of entertainment, food and culture.
