This week we are joined by the legendary Joey Altruda! You may know him from Jump with Joey, Cocktails with Joey, numerous soundtrack work or some of his recent collaboration with Ska Jazz Messengers. Joey’s here to let us know about his brand new collab with and other legendary musician Tom Zé! We also get to know Joey and his background, where he reveals himself as a master storyteller, because he’s a living history of the early ‘90s ska scene in Los Angeles. All that plus Ska News and our Ska Picks of the Week!
