Ska Vendors – www.myspace.com/theskavendors
Steven Montgomery- Vocals, dance moves and rabble rousing. I’ve been a self-confessed ska tragic for over 35 years, I am loving the Melbourne Ska Orchestra vibe. I’m a front man in my own right with a wee Melbourne band, The Ska Vendors. Dancing, yelping and feeling the music are all part of the show. I was fortunate enough to lead the Orchestra on a momentous tour of Chile in 2011 and I feel truly blessed to be part of the Orchestra.
This is Melbourne Ska!
BARRY DEENICK
BASS
After 35 years as a musician I have been lucky enough to have been able to work with a lot of great Melbourne musicians across many genres. Now as part of the MSO engine room I’m having as much fun as ever as we blend different styles with a Jamaican twist.
For the curious here are some of the bands/artists I’ve worked with – Bomba, Ross Wilson, George Rrurrambu, John Butler, Bustamento, Joe Camilleri, Vince Jones, Kia Kaha, Black Coffee, Man Friday, Joe Geia, Kerry Simpson, Randy and the Roots, Duppy Conquerors.
