This week we chat with Josh, Matt and Miguel from Secret Cajun Band. We learn how the band got their start and what early shows  were like. We discuss their 1994 album  Big House coming out on vinyl and their reunion show. We also discuss what’s different about the scene from we they started. Lastly, we give you you some ska news and our ska picks of the week.
