100% Ska Podcast – Ep. 214 – Barbicide Interview and Braustomp Preview

Your weekly dose of a ska DJ trying to emulate your favorite old college radio show. Always 100% ska, always mostly 100% vinyl, and always getting buzzed on Jamaican rum while recording! This week episode features an interview with new NYC-based band Barbicide, featuring Brendog and Mikal (founders and formerly of Mephiskapheles) recorded outside Characters! And of course we have a song from them, too. The show also features music from bands playing at this week’s Braustomp in DC, and a little trivia game via The Toasters!
