Rocksteady with the New York City Ska Orchestra, playing an evening-length dance-along concert of Ska! The NYC Ska Orchestra is a 20-piece big band of top-notch musicians led by arranger, trumpeter, and vocalist Kevin Batchelor. The group features star turns from celebrated octogenarian percussionist/vocalist Larry McDonald and master drummer Carl Wright. Alongside a powerhouse collective of instrumental artists from the reggae recording scene, orchestra members have performed with Peter Tosh, Bob Marley, Lee “Scratch” Perry, Toots & the Maytals. Together, they play a non-stop selection of lush original compositions and arrangements of songs from the richly historic and culturally iconic Jamaican musical styles of 1950s and ’60s ska, mento, rocksteady, and jazz.
