I sat down with The Big News, an independent Ska-Punk band from Oklahoma for a casual conversation about music, their local music scene, and their musical influences.

The Big News is currently touring around the West Coast, and play nearly 100 shows per year all over the country. As they say, "If you're not committed, you're not in."

 

About The Big News: 

"Oklahoma City's The Big News is a Ska Punk band. They mix influences from British two tone and third wave Ska with a heavy influence of 90's punk rock.

The Big News has opened for Ska and Punk greats including Voodoo Glow Skulls, The Interrupters, The Toasters, Roddy Radiation of The Specials, Red City Radio, Los Skarnales, Dan Pothast of MU330, Reel Big Fish, Less Than Jake, Here Come The Mummies  & Suburban Legends. 

The Big News is more than just a band. It is a movement. The common idea that binds this group of musicians together is to create a new generation hungry for the truth in this convoluted and sick political world and to usher in a new generation of show goers who welcome compassion, love, and understanding for all peoples."
