All-day ska extravaganza headlined by Death of Guitar Pop, with a line-up of ska bands and DJs, a fully licensed bar and food.
Death Of Guitar Pop are back at The Pioneer Club on Saturday 12 December, their second all-day ska event in St Albans after a debut in 2025. It's run as part of the St Albans All Dayer, and the day is built around a full line-up of bands and DJs rather than a single headliner. The main act, Death Of Guitar Pop, is fronted by Silky and Top Kat, who draw their sound from Two Tone and Trojan with touches of Sublime, Blur and Ian Dury.
They're not the only ones on the bill. The day also features King Zepha, The Skafonics, Lucca Mae, Monumental and DJ Ska N' Mash, so you'll get a mix of live bands and DJ sets running through the afternoon and into the evening. It's an all-day affair, not a one-off gig, so it's more of a session than a single show.
The Pioneer Club is a grassroots live music venue and a non-profit charity, with proceeds going towards keeping its doors open for the local community. It's known for booking groundbreaking local bands alongside more renowned acts, and for programming everything from full bands to multiple DJ sets and regular open mic nights for local musicians.
