The 4th wave of SKA is here! Celebrate the 30th birthday of one of the most influential SKA radio stations as they hit the road for a birthday tour! Tickets available HERE.

Ska Parade, also known as SP Radio One, is a southern California radio show whose goal is to promote up-and-coming ska artists, as well as other types of new bands. The show was created by Tazy Phyllipz and Albino Brown.[1] The show was a part of the Orange County third-wave ska movement of the mid-1990s. In 1998, the Ska Parade was raided by the heavy metal band Gwar, who fought The Aquabats.[2] Ska Parade’s first compilation albumStep On It: The Best of The Ska Parade Radio Show, helped the career of Sublime and helped launch third wave ska onto the airwaves of many commercial radio stations (e.g. KROQ-FMKCXX91X). Ska Parade’s second compilation, Runnin’ Naked Thru the Cornfield, featured exclusive tracks by Reel Big FishThe SpecialsSave Ferris and The Aquabats. **Ska Parade (based in OC, CA) currently airs on www.DirtyRadio.FM (commercial alternative) every Sunday from 8p-10p Pacific.
