South Korea's authentic ska pioneers bring a smile to faces and a shine to dancing shoes worldwide! The 9 piece traditional ska act wins fans wherever they go--be it festival stages, small punk clubs, national TV, the big screen, or on record. Their latest album "Everyday People" was under the guidance of veteran producer and engineer Brian Dixon (former member of LA ska band The Aggrolites). One of Kingston Rudieska's strengths has always been a willingness to experiment and improvise with the ska and reggae genres, staying true to their Jamaican influences while often infusing their music with a uniquely Korean twist. Never has this trait been pushed as far or displayed as gloriously as on "Everyday People", their latest album and a sign of their growth as a band. While far from usual, there truly is something for everyone on this album, for newcomers to the ska genre to jazz lovers, yet old fans will surely be kept happy despite the new directions. Each instrument is allowed its chance to shine, and new ones are introduced: guest Tommy Tornado on saxophone on the track "Never No More", Kim Violin's soothing strings on "On the Beach" and Choe Hwi Seon's Korean yanggeum on "East Meets West". The usual Kingston Rudieska authentic ska sound is mixed up with some old school ska jazz, a Latin flavor on "Que Bonita", two dub mixes, and several lover's rock tunes, romantically crooned by vocalist Sugar Sukyuel.
