Album Notes

Formed in a North Hollywood garage in 1990, See Spot has been one of the leading ska bands in Los Angeles' rich tapestry of excellent groups since their first professional gig in 1994. Since their debut at the Hong Kong Cafe in Chinatown, Los Angeles, See Spot has kept toes tappin' and bodies groovin' with their unique brand of roots ska laced with heavy latin, jazz, and big band influences. This 6-piece powerhouse delves into rocksteady, reggae and latin boogaloo in addition to their own thumpin' style of rhythmic, traditional ska. Fronted by vocalist Charles Farrar , they have some of the catchiest, memorable tunes the ska world has to offer today!

Over the years, See Spot has had the privilege of sharing the stage with some of the finest performers around from the originators (The Skatalites, Justin Hinds, Carlos Malcom) to the modern era groundbreakers (The Toasters, Let's Go Bowling, Hepcat, Jump With Joey) to the contemporary leaders (The Slackers, Chris Murray, The Aggrolites). They have delighted lovers of music LIVE in Hawaii, New York, Pennsylvania, Washington, Las Vegas, and more, in addition to their beloved California home. They have frequently performed at such Hollywood staples as The Whisky-A-Go-Go, The El Rey Theatre, The Knitting Factory, Doug Weston's Troubadour, and B.B. King's and never pass up a chance to get the crowd movin'!

With their 3rd full-length album, "The Robbery", out now, 2009 promises to be a breakthrough year for the music of See Spot!! "The Robbery" has it all! From the sweet, soulful rocksteady "Everlasting" to the latin-tinged ska party of "Hot Sauce" to the old-school upbeat trad ska sounds of the title track "Robbery", See Spot will have you singing from the first memorable track to the last.
