This week we are joined by Andy Baker from Andy B and the World. Andy tells us how he got into ska music. We learn about one of his early bands, Upbeat Allstars. We discover how they came to be and how their 2012album, Wake Up got a re-release through Ska Punk International. We also lean how Andy B and the World came together and what the future holds for that project. Lastly, we give you ska news and our ska picks of the week.
