The Planet Smashers / The Bar Stool Preachers / Catbite

Sadly Bar Stool Preachers have pulled out of tonight.  The show goes on with Planet Smashers and Catbite playing longer sets. 

Whilst out on tour, the iconic Canadian ska-punkers The Planet Smashers visit Kingston to play at The Fighting Cocks and they're bringing The Bar Stool Preachers and Catbite with them for support!

The Planet Smashers have somehow managed to survive a quarter century of worldwide touring, non-stop partying and extremely questionable life decisions. An absolute staple in the Canadian music scene, The Smashers have been slinging their two-toney, punky, new wavee party ska to the four corners of the earth with an unapologetic middle finger raised on one hand and a double mai-tai cocktail firmly gripped in the other. The band has faced way more than their fair share of adversity over the years but have always managed to maintain an unequivocally positive and often hilarious approach to life; and this admirable attitude comes shining through in every single one of their songs. - Stomp Records

Catbite are ska champions. Combining the jumping energy of UK two-tone with the high-power attack of third wave ska, the Philly band has been rapidly expanding their fan base and serving as standard bearers for the 2020’s ska revival. Their most recent album, Nice One (released by neo-ska icons BadTime Records) was massively well received, having gained praise from Rolling Stone, Brooklyn Vegan, Punknews… and even M&Ms!
