Biografía:
Fundados en 1982, The Toasters fue la primera banda ska de Estados Unidos, formada por el inglés Rob "Bucket" Hingley quien llevaba pocos meses viviendo en NYC. Influenciados por la segunda ola del ska, en la que se encuentran bandas como The Specials, The Selecter, Madness, The Beat, entre otras, forman parte de la llamada tercera ola del Ska, ofreciendo un eclecticismo musical marcado por un cúmulo de estilos como el reggae, jazz, soul, dancehall, rap y rock que conforman su particular sonido.

Standard Tuning
Ska strumming except for the the last time "You can keep dancing..."
D D
Forty years ago there was a Jumpin' Jazz Jamaica scene
D A
They could hear these tunes drifting down from New Orleans
D G
They put the two together in a thing they called Ska
D A D
And sent it off to England in the back of Laurel Aiken's car
D D
It was 1964 and the rhythm just wouldn't stop,
D D A
People banging on the door to hear "My boy Lollipop"
D G
Then the 70's came and with it the 2 Tone scene...
D A D
People shakin' their heads at the rudies on the record machine
D D
Now the 90's are here with the new bands bringin' it to you
D A
Skins and rudies-and even some punk rock, too!
D G
But the boys are still playing and the music is coming out live!
D A D
Down at your jukebox, dancing on a Saturday night!
*piano solo same as verse*
D D
In their eyes where does Chuck Berry fit?
D D A
Well he influences the Ska, that's the long and the short of it
D D G
He played his guitar and they heard it on the radio
D A D
And the rest is history, just as everybody knows...
D D
Forty years ago there was a Jumpin' Jazz Jamaica scene
D A
You can check them rudies dancing at the record machine
D D G
The style is timeless, with Fred Perry and Doc Marten boots...
D A D
You can keep dancing, just as long as you remember your roots
D A D
You can keep rocking, just as long as you remember your roots
D A D
You can keep dancing, just as long as you remember your roots
